    Definitely jealous of those awesome machines! I guess you could say that the Corona 3 is my "grail machine," though it's not really rare. Fantastic colors!

    Alice and I have to add to the chorus of praise - they are both lovely machines.

    Lovely!

    The WordPlay kids are going to jump with joy at their colored ribbons. Thanks!

    With two Corona 3s in working order I'd told myself, "Enough, already!". But since now you have collected another, well ...

    Question - who is your California ribbon source? And is it possible to obtain "semi-inked" ribbons? Several times I've replaced a fading ribbon on a machine that produced faint, but very crisp characters, only to find that the new ribbon splatted squishy, fat globs that didn't do justice to the typeslugs.

    I have the same typewriter in it's carrying case, but with a black front, not green or blue, together with 4 ribbons and the original instructions on 'How to use'. Lovely condition. Is this typewriter worth money and, if so, how much would you say? Many thanks for your help.
