E Remington & Sons traces its origins to 1816, when Eliphalet Remington began crafting rifle barrels in a small forge in upstate New York — work that quickly earned a reputation for accuracy and dependable workmanship. From this modest beginning, the enterprise expanded through successive family partnerships into a major American manufacturer, eventually producing a wide range of firearms and mechanical goods. By the 1870s the company's ambitions reached beyond arms production, culminating in the commercial debut of the Sholes and Glidden Type-Writer in 1874, the world's first successful typewriter, which firmly established Remington as a leader in nineteenth-century industrial innovation. - AsNotedIn
