Product Name M800 Souveran
Manufacturer and Year Pelikan, Germany -- 1988-99, based off the pelican design on the cap.

Filling System Piston filling system
Color Blue lined barrel with semi-transparency. Black cap. Gold plated trim. A real classic.
Nib 18k 2-tone cursive italic nib. It started as a broad nib and was cut for line variation, so the result is a medium cursive italic. It's quite smooth but on the italic side more than the buttery stub side. See the writing sample below.
Condition Near mint condition, there are some polishing marks and handwear on the gold plated trim and handwear on the cap. No scratches or cracks. Working perfectly, great visibility thru the barrel. The collar looks perfect. In Pelikan box, but it's not the box for the M800 model so it's a bit small.
