HEY! WHAT’S THE DEAL ON TYPEWRITER RIBBONS?!?
It turns out ribbons aren’t really a problem.
The standard or universal (also called a Group 1 or DIN 2103) ribbon is about 1/2 an inch wide and fits almost any machine.
But spools? Well, spools aren’t so easy.
While many vintage manual typewriters take a Group 1 spool, many others have bespoke or proprietary spools without which your machine won’t function.
This video tells you more. It also shows you how to change the ribbon on a typewriter and/or swap ribbons between two different types of spools.

HOW DO I KNOW WHICH TYPE OF SPOOL MY TYPEWRITER TAKES?
One of the best ways is to call up a reputable typewriter vendor or repairman.
Frankly? If you like typewriters, I urge you to get to know one of these fine service providers.
Their expertise is priceless.
Plus, if you’re looking to have a machine repaired or refurbished, or to purchase a machine, you’ll want to head to these folks first.
Across the United States, there are many reputable vendor/repair establishments. However, they’re are a dying breed and I hope you’ll join me in supporting them as often as you can.
The establishments I know personally and recommend without hesitation are:
Gramercy Typewriter (NYC) https://gramercytypewriter.com/ 212-674-7700
Philly Typewriter (Phil.) http://www.phillytypewriter.com/ 267-541-2100
Karl Business Machines (NJ) https://www.karlbusinessmachines.com/ 609-890-1743
I’ve also heard great things (and routinely) about:
Cambridge Typewriter (Boston) http://www.cambridgetypewriter.com/ 781-643-7010
TTS Business Products (Long Island, NY) https://www.etsy.com/shop/TypewriterS... 516-489-8300
Phoenix Typewriter (AZ) http://www.phoenixtypewriter.com/ 602-992-7611
IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER VENDOR/REPAIR ESTABLISHMENTS YOU RECOMMEND, PLEASE LEAVE YOUR RECOMMENDATION IN THE COMMENTS BELOW.
I’LL LOOK INTO IT AND ADD IT!
With thanks, as always, for your interest and support…
