Sailor - Dutch or Japanese?
This postcard was sent to me by a Dutch Postcrosser. It is printed in Holland. Was there a Sailor fountain pen made in the Netherlands?

Re: Sailor - Dutch or Japanese?
The postcard is a repro from a poster for the famous Japanese fountain pens. The designer is Jan Lavies, and he is Dutch.
