Last of the Remingtons
This is my 1894 Remington, serial #138975. This places it in the post-1910 period after Remington sold their existing doubles to a large hardware store chain. I have seen a picture of the letter from Remington to, I think, Shapliegh Hardware. Does anyone know what the highest number recorded is for this model? Does anyone have an idea how long it took them to sell these off? Is there any period advertising from the hardware company a member could share?
