Review: Works great - Perfect drop-in for most old typewriters. Nice ink, and work fantastic for my old Remington-Rand. Those reviews about not fitting Remington typewriters are NOT FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS. They fit great, you just need to pop out the internal adapter, which is clearly laid out in countless forums, instructions, and youtube tutorials. It's even in Remington manuals, generations of people have been using typewriter ribbons, and nothing has changed in 50 years.
Review: Works great with 100 year old Underwood typewriter - It took me about 15 minutes to figure out how to put this into my 100 year old Underwood typewriter (only because I'm 26 and never saw one before), but the ribbon went in no problem, they turn on each key stroke and the quality is dark and clear. I am very pleased with this product and would certainly order another as soon as my first ribbon is near to running out. It's kind of mind blowing that in this day and age we have so much technological wonder when it comes to creating. Using something mechanical like an old typewriter has this very real feeling as you hit each key (and put your arm into it I might add). Call me a hipster or a dork, but I love using this on my Underwood typewriter.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work on a Smith Corona Coronet? I believe it is model 6 ELK. I think you're supposed to use a "B-70" ribbon.**
A: The ribbon will be fine. The spools will probably also fit, but even if not, the ribbon can easily be spooled off onto the original spools. Only machines that require cartridges, like the later electrics, will not match with this ribbon.

**Q: will this work in a smith corona clipper?**
A: Hi Gracie - Yes this will fit the clipper.

**Q: Will this work on smith corona super sterling?**
A: Hi Dennis -  Normally NO. You have not mentioned the Model of your Super Sterling.  If you have a 3L series / version of the Super Sterling, This will NOT fit as this is the (2 inch) size. You will need to order item # belowBlack and White Cover UP Correction = B0074TVU9ABlack and Red = B0073XXYNWSolid Black = B0074BPPDU

**Q: Will this ribbon work on a 1963 R.C. Allen typewriter?**
A: Yes as long as the spool opening is the same.
