Remington, 1926, Portable, USA
The Portable was the very first true portable typewriter.
One of the most innovative features is its "pop-up" typebars which are raised for use via a side lever and lay back flat for storage. Over half a million were made.
Curios: during its first year of production, the Portable was made in limited quantities, and had to be special-ordered; it could not be purchased from a typewriter dealer until October, 1921.
