Description:
I bought this machine at the same time as the '36 Corona.
This is a nice machine to use and is in very good cosmetic shape. It has a different font than I am used to.
Update - 8/7/2017 - Left the collection. Sold with four others to a teacher who intends to show them to his students and have them use them with supervision.
I must admit that, while this machine was nice to use, it was just not for me. I actually like my older remington portables, the ones with geared typebars, much better! Nonetheless, still a nice machine overall.

I started collecting typewriters several years ago and it started with a late 1960s Smith-Corona Sterling portable that I got as a gift.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Quiet-Riter on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Quiet-Riter By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
