Optimus Prime\'s Stereo Equipment
Old School Audio - Old School Prices - Professionally TestedProduct Description
This is a Remington Quiet-Riter portable manual typewriter in olive/tan body finish, complete with its original fitted carrying case in matching brown tweed with green interior lining. The typewriter has been tested and confirmed working — keys strike cleanly, the carriage advances and returns properly, and the platen and line-advance mechanism function as intended. Cosmetically the machine shows honest age-related wear consistent with a well-used piece; the case exterior shows scuffs, soiling, and surface marks visible in the photos.
Please review all photos for details.

Testing & Verification
The Quiet-Riter was tested for full mechanical function: every key was actuated and confirmed to strike and release without sticking or jamming, the type slugs were verified to return cleanly to rest position, and the escapement advances the carriage one space per keystroke throughout the full carriage travel. The carriage return lever, line-space ratchet, margin stops, and platen knobs were all exercised and operate correctly. The bell, ribbon advance mechanism, and shift function were also confirmed operational.
