Beautiful Remington Model 6 Typewriter. 1984.

Beautiful Remigton Model 6 typewriter. 1984. Works, but one of the keys is displaced, even though it is present. It is a perfect piece of equipment for decoration or for replacement of parts, if desired. In any case, it can be repaired, as it has all its parts, but we don't know. The glossy black metal casing is in good condition with some minor scuffs, and the keys have the typical wear of being an antique piece, which does not detract from its beauty. At the top, where the carriage is located, appears the brand painted in yellow with antique typeface, accompanied by the logo of the brand. In the lower part, the name of the brand and the model appear again. It is not a complete casing as other examples, but presents an elevated structure open in its central part which allows to appreciate its machinery and the movement of the keys. These devices originally arose from the need to help people suffering from blindness to read and write. During the 1850s and 1860s many inventors tried to create a more practical typewriter, but none succeeded until 1868, when Christopher Sholes patented a machine that really managed to revolutionize the world of work. In 1873 E. Remington and Sons, of Ilion, New York, manufactured the first industrial model of which they would sell a large number of copies. The first Remington typewriter, produced for American inventors Sholes and Glidden, contained almost all the essential features of the modern typewriter. The first Remingtons only wrote in capital letters, but in 1878 it became possible to change the carriage and with it the possibility of developing lower case letters as well. It is undoubtedly one of the best known brands of typewriters, which developed a wide range of models. A machine full of nostalgia for a time when technology advanced in small steps.
