I have attached pictures of a Remington C-5 catalog that I assume is a reproduction although it is not marked as such. Does anyone have a price list that would be asso
ciated with it?

If you can post a photo of the center spread, showing a view of the staples that bind the booklet together, it would give a better insight if it was a repro copy, or an original.
As far as an excellent resource for information, it still has value weather it is an original or a copy.

My dad has a copy of this catalog also.
I read to look at the staples in the middle how will this help identify copy or original?

Not sure how many times nor when the catalog was reproduced, but the one I have is very clearly marked on its back outside cover that it is a reprint. I’ve never seen a corresponding price list. BTW I’ve had mine a looong time, maybe 50 years. Bought it “new” at a show in the early 1970s and it’s lived mostly in a desk drawer since then (and inside a clear plastic bag for the past 20-30 years) but you can see how much age has darkened the paper during that time. Just for reference - not sure whether that has any bearing on judging the age of yours.

Thank you Ken that’s a pretty easy way of checking. I will look at Dad’s when I get a chance still old. I was only 3 when that one was produced. I feel like I have yellowed a bit in the last couple of years.

You are welcome JP,
Do you need a better copy. I tried to flatten it but did not rotate

My catalog does not have the reprint info on the back.
