That Model D had magnificent typefaces; it was proportionally-spaced. The space bar was split in the center--one side gave you an "em" space (wide); the other gave you an "n" space (narrow). When backspacing to correct, it was a bit of a mental trick to remember how wide each character was. Mine had the Arcadia typeface. http://writingball.blogspot.com/2020/05/guest-post-ibm-model-d-executive.html It goes almost without mentioning that one used a film ribbon with these. --Chuck
