Aurora 88 black with gold trim M nib

[mcorrea]

I have been using and gathering fountain pens of a long time, more than 30 years. Today, I have decided that I don't like standard medium nibs. I use stubs or italics for my everyday wiriting and a few fine/flex or semiflex for filling forms or trying my hand at pointed pen calligraphy. For this reason, I am selling some pens that have medium nibs and so I have no use for them. This will help me fund some more italic or stub nibbed pens.

This one is a modern Aurora 88 with a medium nib, I bought this one new some 20 years ago. It has not seen much use as you can see in the pictures. I do not have box or papers, though. It's a nice wet writer, with a moderate level of feedback and no flexibility at all (typical Aurora 14k nib). It's a classic design, not too flashy, except for the nib, which is spectacular.

I am offering this at 250 EUR including shipping anywhere in the world. I live in France and that's where I'll ship it from.

Here are the pics (Please send me a message if you have problems loading them).

I'm sorry, but the pictures are not shown to me. Is the link OK?

[mcorrea]

Sorry about that, I'm using Dropbox but I have not yet figured out how to make the images public so you don't need to be signed in to view them. Off course, since I'm signed in, I can see them.

Is it fixed now?

Thanks in advance,
Matias

I'm logged in, but something is not right with the setting, I guess.
I still cannot see the pictures.

Could you send me some pictures to: kimwt76@gmail.com
Does this pen have long tines? If so, I'd like to buy it.

I think I fixed it now.

Thank you for your email. Sadly, this is not what I'm looking for..
Still a great pen! I wish some lucky person takes it soon! :)

I hope this helps someone to take the plunge!

I'm leaving on vacation next week for almost four weeks. I'll take the pen with me in case someone closes the deal in the meantime, but I will not be checking in here too often. Please bear with me if I'm slow to respond.
