My first repair is going well so far, after initial cleaning, replacing 2 springs, bending the bell chime bar back in place and a adding a new drawband string. It types all characters but this is how it comes out, haven't had the chance to continue my research into the issues but pretty happy with the results so far. There is some ghosting/double striking with black and the ribbon gets all bunched up with red as well as sometimes making multi colored letters.

Thanks again for the help u/Wooden-Lifeguard-636

This is going to be my first repair, got it for almost nothing on FB Marketplace but I can't find the model or serial number. I checked all the standard locations, behind the paper roller and the undercarriage but there was nothing. I also scrolled the typewriter database for a while, there a lot similar but no exact matches, was hoping to find a manual before I started taking it apart. Any assistance or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Found it, 1958 Royal Companion. Any tips will still be appreciated as I start my first repair.
