I have this model and I need to know where replacement ribbon is sold. Can you name any websites that sell it?

I am an expert typewriter technician, maybe I can help. I can supply you typewriters and ribbons.

Awesome. If possible can you make tutorials on care and maintenance.

@36redsoxfan I'm working on a generic typewriter-upkeep vid right now. Thanks for asking.

Great video. However, the serial number 5AX-162077 would date the machine to 1949. That explains the reason it has a metal body instead of a plastic body.
