I’ll include a digital copy of the original manual.Ĭomes cleaned, adjusted, oiled, and ready to write! Ships with a new, 2 tone ribbon wound onto the original metal spools.

They’re all identical mechanically.Īll pictures included are from machines that we’ve sold previously. Most say ‘Remington 5’ while some say ‘Streamliner’. Most are branding “Remington’ but a few ore ‘Monarch’. It’s rounded, modernist design has held up well to time, and makes it one of the more sought after machine for vintage writing-machine connoisseurs. This typewriter is arguably one of the more beautiful machines in history. Remington Model 5 or Monarch Model 5 vintage portable typewriter in exquisite working condition. It won’t be exactly the same as the models pictured, but it will be a working typewriter in comparable condition. Please keep us updated on the Halda.Order your typewriter today, and I will send you a beautiful specimen of this model in about 2 weeks. I had the platen for my 1936 Imperial Good Companion renewed about a year ago and the difference it made was just amazing. The platen is so hard, it won't even feed the paper straight, so I'm not even going to try using it until the platen has been renewed. Short once the Canada/US border opens again, then I'll give the whole machine a thorough deep down cleaning, service and tune-up. I was able to score a Halda Portable a couple of years ago, very dusty and a rock hard platen. Several of us tried our best to see if we could come up with a workable replacement, I think she ended up having to manually rewind the ribbon back onto the non Halda spool every time she came to the eyelet. We had one forum member out on Vancouver Island who bought a Halda on line only to find it had one spool missing.
The Halda used a proprietary spool that doesn't fit any other typewriter and no other spool will work on a Halda portable, so don't lose them.
Looks like this unit still has its original ribbon spools.
