Hi, I have a Royal Companion Portable from 1940's. I bought new ribbons at mytypewriter.com (select the "Royal Portable" ribbon). It fits. Anyway if it doesn't it's not an expensive mistake, but I researched this and apparently all vintage Royal Portables have the same standard ribbon. Worked out in my case. Good luck!

The ribbon should reverse itself if it working properly. Just to the indide of each ribbon is a reversing that the ribbon should go thru, Move that arm away from the empty spool and type a few letters it should reverse. DickyO
