Allen, Armstrong, Barlock 12, Century 10, Continental, All Corona(Model 3 and 4 original spools needed), Demountable, Emerson, Harris, Fox Visible, Franklin 7(7/16") Hammond Multiplex(7/16"), Monarch, National 1, Noiseless Portable(7/16"), Noiseless Old Model(7/16"), Noiseless New Model, Oliver 3,5,7(7/16"), Pittsburgh Visible 11, Royal 5,10 and all portables, Remington Visible and portables(original spools required for portables), Rex, Smith Premier Visible, Sholes New Model, Underwood New and Portables, Victor and Woodstock 5HN.

 

  Some machines will need the use of the original spools but the majority can use the plastic replacement spools that come with these ribbons. If the spools don't fit then simply wind the new ribbon onto the original spool.

  Only typewriters that have the option of multi-colored ribbons can use the black and red or black with correction. Look for the black, red and white dot's on your typewriter ribbon selector. If you don't have a ribbon selector then you will need to order the black ribbon.

  All of these ribbons are manufactured for me at the time of order. These ribbons are fresh and come with a freshness guarantee from the manufacturer. You will receive 2 ribbons of your choice. Black, Black/Red, Black/Correction or Mix them to your needs!

  Black is recommend for most applications.

  Black and red were more for accounting purposes but many collectors like the look of a black and red ribbon in their typewriters. 

                            

 International shipping is $14 USD for up to 6 ribbons.
