The American Remington firm had a factory in Holland to produce portable typewriters 'off-shore' for many years.  They also had a subsiduary in Germany which they eventually closed down in the early 1960's.  The tooling for the German-made portable typewriter was then transferred to the Dutch factory and re-born as the Remington Ten-Forty.  So German engineering produced in a Dutch factory by an American company !

A well-specified machine, it features a 43-character keyboard, eraser table and full tabulator (handy for column work and indented papargraphs)  There is also a freehead for lining up pre-printed forms and an 'under hood' keyboard touch control.  This machine is a little more substantial than the many lightweight portables that are designed to simply dash off one letter a week, but nowhere near as heavy as a full desk portable for near-continuous work.  It is relatively light in weight and easy to carry anywhere in its plastic case. It would make an ideal present for someone special, or simply treat yourself !
