Scarce Butler Brothers Typewriter serial numbered BB3460 which dates it to ca.1933.
Butler Brothers Department Stores commissioned Remington to produce a series of typewriters with their own serial number sequence and unique color schemes. For example, the blues and black of this Butler Brothers were not available on its counterpart, the Remington No.2 portable.
The example listed here is in very good condition. The paint is very good with minimal signs of wear and the nickel plating is excellent with minimally wear. The decals are strong. More than anything this typewriter just needs a minor cleaning.
Functionally, it works well. The carriage advances and returns well. Types well. Some lubrication for posterity would be recommended as well as a new ribbon for regular use.
An original case is included.
This Butler Bros. types 10 characters per inch (Pica).
Overall condition is Excellent for this Very Scarce model!
