The visible change is the newer Remington logo and no more Sperry Rand, and some units were sold under the Torpedo brand.<br /><br />I have one of the earlier 25 launched in '80 and the serial is very low, P028xxx. The 15, 25 and the low-cost Ipanema was in production during that decade and the only change i know was in '86 in the monetary simbols, from Cruzeiro to Cruzado in Brazilian Portuguese layout, and from Pound to Austral in South-American Spanish layout. I don't know about serial was these change.<br /><br />Althought exists other big (and ugly) brazilian sisters of 2x from the 80's, the model 33 with a more wider carriage and the no more portable Alfa, with the older Remington keycaps.Germanonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8655653784122131754.post-49559618696816273732021-12-30T15:33:56.087-05:002021-12-30T15:33:56.087-05:00There is a lot of data at https://typewriterdataba...There is a lot of data at https://typewriterdatabase.com/remington.42.typewriter-serial-number-database, but the late Brazilian-made Remingtons are not included.

I do have a Remington 10-40, and it's amazing though how strong and solid the plastics are. Didn't they call it Cycolic or something like that? One of my 80's SCM electrics had a typebar cover that looked like this one. It's good to know that the mechanics are good, and see a Brazilian made machine.Don Lamperthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10033476212606822358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8655653784122131754.post-21078536736788081892014-11-17T05:29:41.214-05:002014-11-17T05:29:41.214-05:00Crikey that's a heck of a machine.
