Finding Poetry in an Olivetti Lettera 32
Designed by Ettore Sottsass, the Lettera 32 is more than a portable — it’s a small piece of Italian design history. Its compact form and crisp action made it a favorite for journalists and poets alike. When we service a Lettera, we replace the ribbon, clean type slugs, and calibrate the escapement for even spacing. A little mineral oil goes a long way, but restraint protects the action.

We pre‑clean with a carbon brush, then wash on an ultrasonic cleaner using a mild solution. Records dry in a dust‑free rack before going into anti‑static sleeves. Your stylus will thank you.
