The single element, best known as the "golf ball" which holds the embossed characters for printing, is about the size and the embossing reminiscent of the dimples of a golf ball.The Selectric I was available in standard and wide-carriage sizes and in various colors, including red and blue as well as traditional neutral colors. The single elements were available in many fonts, including symbols for science and mathematics, script, Old English, and more than a dozen ordinary alphabets. Over the years, there were several different cartridge styles for the ribbons, even in the same model Selectric, and they were not interchangeable.Our Refurbished Selectric I makes a WONDERFUL addition to any working office, Collector's item, or museum. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< see all other makes and models in our ebay store (Click here other items) all categories on left.
