I thought it was "Amphenol 57 Series".
I suspect "Blue-Ribbon" may be the name of the original larger style, and
"Micro-Ribbon" is the name of the smaller style more popular now-a-days.
If that's correct, the plug-in input modules for 60's-era tube Tekky scopes
(for example) used a Blue-Ribbon connector, while the Centronics connector is a
Micro-Ribbon connector. Going fom the Amphenol web-site, 57 series appears to be
either a synonym for the Micro-Ribbon series or a subset of the Micro-Ribbon series.

101 and 306 used them (early 70's)
