Visconti question Re Opera and Wall Street

[drgoretex]

Just in the process of 'blue-printing' a custom pen order, and the question comes up, while looking at the grip/nib section:

Is the grip section of the Wall Street the same size as that of the Opera? (I have a Wall Street, but not an Opera)

Thanks,

Ken

Well, I don't have a regular Wall Street, but the section on a regular Opera measures 1.5 cm.

I can compare an Opera Master to a Wall Street LE, though (decidedly larger pens):

OMD: base of nib to base of threads 2cm, base of nib to base of ink window 2.7cm
WSLE: base of nib to base of threads 1.7cm, base of nib to base of ink window 2.25cm.
