BSIE Typewriters – Olivetti Typewriter Ribbon – Black and Red – Fits Lettera 22, Lettera 32, Lettera 35, Studio 44, Valentine – GR4 – Tested in Nice, France

• GR4 RIBBON IN BLACK AND RED FOR OLIVETTI TYPEWRITERS: Fits the standard GR4 dual-spool format used by Olivetti — including Lettera 22, Lettera 32, Lettera 35, Lettera 42, Studio 44, Studio 45, Valentine. GR4 is the proprietary ribbon group of the Olivetti Lettera and Studio line.
• 10 METERS OF FRESH BLACK-AND-RED INK — DENSE AND FRESH: Woven nylon ribbon with full black-and-red dye across the upper and lower band halves, vacuum-sealed. Each spool carries 10 meters of ribbon — at the upper end of the GR4 spectrum and significantly longer than typical 7-meter universal refills.
• BICHROME — BLACK FOR THE MAIN TEXT, RED FOR CORRECTIONS AND ACCOUNTING: The classic black-and-red configuration that generations of secretaries, accountants and proofreaders worked with. On an Olivetti Lettera 32 — the machine on which Cormac McCarthy wrote Blood Meridian — one tap of the color shift key flips the lower band stripe red.
• TESTED IN OUR NICE WORKSHOP — NOT A UNIVERSAL RIBBON: BSIE Typewriters is a small workshop restoring antique typewriters on the French Côte d'Azur. Each batch is tested before shipping on a real Olivetti from our workshop — no universal ribbon manufacturing, no anonymous mass-market goods. Packaged in a recyclable kraft paperboard box, no unnecessary plastic wrap.
• BSIE GUARANTEE — FREE 14-DAY RETURNS: If the ribbon doesn't fit, doesn't write the way you expected, or simply isn't right for your machine, send it back — no explanation needed, no restocking fee. We answer queries via the "Contact Seller" button on this page. Your typewriter deserves to keep telling your story.
