help please?


There are quite a few Remington faces available. EFF Remington (Electronic Font Foundry) from most font vendors.

VintageType
http://www.vintagetype.com/
Has at least four different varieties—Remington, Remington Portable, Remington Premiere, and Remington Perfected. The first is in their "Professsional" category, the rest under "Vintage".


Autumn Leaves fonts has a Remington font that's similar to the IBM Orator style. (Same as "Remington Perfected")

If you don't have to be Remington-specific, there are also dozens of free typewriter look-alike fonts available.
