Oops, I dit it again

In 1914 brengt Remington zijn 'Junior' uit. Helaas is die machine vis noch vlees. Te klein om als kantoormachine au sérieux te worden genomen. En te groot om te concurreren met een draagbare Corona 3. Het wordt een flop.

In 1919 doet de Union Typewriter Company (waartoe Remington behoort) een tweede gooi naar succes. Het schuift een van zijn bedrijven (American Writing Machine Company) de machine toe om ze te hertekenen. Die wordt wat minder hoekig, met spoelen die van achter naar boven verhuizen. Toch maakt ze ook nu niet de minste indruk op haar prospecten, die kiezen voor de gloednieuwe Underwood 3 of Remington 1. Een paar jaar later verdwijnt de Century 10 met stille trom weer van de markt.

Oops, I did it again

In 1914, Remington launches its 'Junior'. Sadly, this machine is neither the one or the other. Too small to be taken seriously as an office machine, too big to compete with a portable Corona 3. It is a flop.

The Union Typewriter Company (to which Remington belongs) makes another bid for success in 1919. It gives the machine to one of its companies (the American Writing Machine Company) for redrawing. It becomes less angular, with spools that are moved from the back to the top. However, it does not make the slightest impression on its prospective buyers, who choose the brand new Underwood 3 or Remington 1. A few years later the Century 10 leaves the market quietly.
