Reddit reviews IBM Selectric 71 Typewriter Ribbon Compatible

Would something like this be what you're looking for? https://www.aroundtheoffice.com/Typewriter-Ribbon-IBM-Selectric-1136076/productinfo/SC-062-IBM-COM/ I have Around the Office Ribbons in three of my manual machines and they seem to work pretty good.

​

Wait I think I found it! https://smile.amazon.com/IBM-Selectric-Typewriter-Ribbon-Compatible/dp/B001D4F9E4/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=ibm+selectric+typewriter+ribbon&qid=1554498085&s=gateway&sr=8-6 I had to do a few searches to find out what the ribbon looked like. The Fact says its the film not a cloth ribbon.

​

The coronamatic 17657 is the Black Nylon ribbon and is either still in production or of very recent manufacturer. Amazon listing with correct picture is here: https://www.amazon.com/Smith-Corona-17657-Ribbon-Typewriters/dp/B00006RVRZ/ref=pd_sim_236_2?ie=UTF8&dpID=41ASCQE7TJL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&psc=1&refRID=J2MJF5KB6JBTRMJ395V2 (This is the one I have for mine)

Selectrics, with the exception of the the Model 72 (Selectric I Fabric ribbon) only have third party film ribbons available new, the Model 72 which used the fabric ribbon cartridge has nylon ribbons available for it.
