Hi everybody
Up for grabs I have two very nice vintage pens!
I'm in need of exactly 250,- euros for something else, so I'm letting them go at that price together! My loss is your gain here
1) A Watermans' Ideal in green marbled celluloid
This is an uncommon (most were produced in the US and this one in the UK) Ideal with a nib that can flex quite nicely.
It's a lever filler and it's sacked and all - it's working, filling, and writinge nicely. Has some corrosion in the trims and is fitted with the original nib.
I bought it restored by the renowned Grandmia Pens, who has done a video on this exact pen before I bought it from him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDY_CMl4WNM
2) A Columbus Extra 94
This is a big piston filler, made by the Italian brand Columbus out of Italian celluloid.
It has an original nib with the markings "Columbus", "Extra" and "H". The H (I believe) indicates the characteristic of the nib: it's quite a hard one.
Works perfectly and almost no corrosion on the trims.
Here are some pictures of the pens, including a writing sample: https://imgur.com/gallery/aq02YXG. If you wish for more pictures or information, don't hesitate to contact me!
I'll be shipping to anywhere in the world from Belgium at cost. Payment via PayPal or bank transfer (no fees).
Thanks for looking!
