Teletype Model 43

My Teletype Model 43 (added to my collection in 2018)

Got this talking to a PC at 300 baud, however, ribbon is dried up, and I was not able to get it back together correctly after attempting to re-wet the ink (WD40 trick), so I need to source a new ribbon, which is not an easy task, unlike older teletypes (like the ASR33) these ribbons seem to be made from unobtainium.
