2. 1920's or 30's Europa Continental Safety pen in 18 K.R. (Karat Rolled Gold). There is no brassing on the pen that I could find, but there is about a 1.5 mm dent and a tiny bump mark on the tapered part of the overlay next to the turning knob. According to Letizia Jacopini, the Europa brand was one of the best, highest quality pen brands made in Italy. Many of their overlays were identical to Waterman's. The cap has a flower on top and an intricate flora pattern on the roller clip. The pen had a new cork gasket installed before I bought the pen and it is tight and does not leak. The nib is a Rover brand Flexible Extra Fine 14K marked .585. Capped the pen measures 4 3/4 inches or 12.1 cm.

Price $450.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

Rules, Shipping, Etc.

The usual rules apply, the person sending the first e-mail on an item
~stating intent to purchase~ gets the item. I will give you 5 days to
decide if you like the pen or not. I prefer payment by PayPal but also
accept checks or money orders in USD. I can only accept payment by
PayPal from countries outside the U.S. I ship worldwide, so
international customers are always welcome.

Prices are post paid in the U.S., and will be shipped with a tracking
number and insurance. I normally ship inside the U.S. by U.S.
Postal Service Priority Mail. I also ship to other countries by Priority
Mail. I can also ship to other countries by Express International Mail,
if you request it, but it is costly.

Return Policy: I will always allow pens, or other items, to be
returned. If there is a problem I would prefer the chance to fix the problem
or replace the item, when and if possible. Otherwise a full refund
will be offered. If you find a problem and choose to send the item
(pen, mechanical pencil, etc.) to someone else to be corrected, I will
not be responsible for any other problems.

Happy penning!
