Up for sale is a beautiful Olivetti Lettera 32 which was manufactured in Italy in 1965. This typewriter is in near mint shape both cosmetically and mechanically. Everything is fully functional on this typewriter, right down to the bell. The paint is in great shape as well, with very few scratches or flaws. The carrying case has some minor wear, and the right-hand zipper is disconnected from one of the tracks. The left-hand zipper works perfectly, and so the case still zips half-way and remains sufficiently closed. The zipper can likely be repaired if you know what you're doing, since everything is completely in tact and not worn despite the zipper being de-railed. This typewriter is a very smooth and reliable typewriter, and makes for a great portable workhorse. Despite its small size, this typewriter can definitely be used heavily. This typewriter is very easy to use, although it does not use universal ribbons. You'll either want to re-thread the original spools as I did, or order a ribbon specifically designed for Olivetti Portables.
