[GreenKeys] New Model 28 owner

[til128 at juno.com]

Hi all: I have had good luck with the following on EBay # 202827875623 These come with the rivet/grommet used to reverse the ribbon. FWIW, save your metal spools and rewind the plastic ones to them. Tom Tillson

If the 28 KSR follows form with the 28 ROTR (typing reperforator) I get universal typewriter ribbons from Amazon. Or a staples&hellip;.  1&rdquo; width I believe. 
 Measure the ribbon guide to be sure.  And these ribbons are still very common. I also sometimes have to trim the plastic around the side of the ribbon spool to keep it out of the way of the ratchet wheels that advance the ribbon in my ROTR. Some brands are just about a mm or two bigger than they need to be around the sides.   And they come in multipacks.  Anthony WB7PZZ

I just picked up a 28 KSR.  It&rsquo;s a Western Union branded model and appears to be in very good condition.  My first step is to completely check it out both mechanically and electrically before I power it up. My next step is to secure some rolls of papers and ribbons. Can someone please point me to a good source to purchase?

Thanks in advance,
