Welcome to Typewriter Ribbon Tins! Welcome to a quiet corner for anyone curious about typewriter ribbon tins. You can share close-up photos, compare lid fittings and printed metals, or ask about a factory mark you cannot place. New observations and careful questions are just as useful here as finished identifications.
