I was curious, so I searched that typewriter ad. Turns out there are a whole bunch of copycat sites with that ad too. https://www.google.com/search?q=The+Remington+Portable+Typewriter+lists+at+%2429.95.+It+has+capital+and+small+letters,+standard+key+board,+shift+key+and+many+features.+It+also+resembles+the+big+machines+in+efficiency,+for+don’t+forget+it’s+a+Remington+–+with+every+merit+for+which+Remingtons+are+famous.+On+sale+at+all+stores+except+Jamaica https://www.google.com/search?q=The+Remington+Portable+Typew... The ad in itself doesn't actually sound nonsensical. Remington did make portable typewriter models, though I didn't find any pricing information. I'm also not sure what's meant by "all stores except Jamaica." I don't know if Jamaica in this case means the country or the NYC neighborhood.
