This Olivetti Lettera 32, made around 1971, is a mid-century design icon — compact, precise, and beautifully styled by Marcello Nizzoli. The body is finished in a rare yellow-green tone, an uncommon variation that feels more vibrant and full of life than the traditional blue-green models. It carries a warmth and Mediterranean energy that perfectly complements Olivetti’s signature minimalist design. Beloved by writers, journalists, and thinkers around the world, the Lettera 32 remains one of the most reliable portable typewriters ever made.
This machine has an QZERTY (Italian) layout, including keys for "è", "é", "ç", "à", "ù", "ì", "ò". Please check the keyboard photos for additional special symbols.
The classic Olivetti Pica is a timeless serif typeface with elegant, highly readable letterforms. It produces crisp, refined text that is perfect for letters, journals, and everyday writing.
This typewriter is in very good cosmetic condition, showing only some wear on the trims in the back. Please review the listing photos carefully. All keys, margins, line spacing, and ribbon functions operate properly following a detailed cleaning and adjustment for a smooth, responsive typing experience. It comes ready to write with a freshly installed ribbon, and extra replacement ribbons are available for purchase separately. A carrying bag (made in Spain) showing wear consistent with age is also available as an add-on.
