How to change the ribbon on the Model 71 Selectric Selectric Guts
It is a narrow platen model, they were available in 3 widths that I know of. This typewriter is a model 72, with a cloth ribbon in a plastic cartridge. The single type element (ball) has 88 characters on it, in 4 rows. Selectric was introduced in 1961 (just like me!), and was revolutionary, in that the platen does not move, but instead the type element moves. I got it working pretty well, but the pink one has a major problem that I need to fix (when I get really bored). One of my first Selectrics, I found it (and it's pink twin) at the swap meet, for an irresistable price. Here is a picture of some IBM Selectric tools, given to me by a kind fellow who used to service these machines.
