Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Pelikano Antimacchia Nero, this is an export model specifically geared towards Italians. Not easy to find.
Manufacturer and Year Pelikan, Germany -- 1968-71.
Length 5-1/4"
Filling System Technically the pens take international cartridges and converters but Pelikan pens tend to be a bit picky. In this case, the barrel is also narrow and short. We found a few converters that fit on the nib unit but they were very tight in the barrel. A long cartridge does fit, but it is a tight fit. We recommend using international short cartridges. A new Diamine Blue Black short cartridge is uninstalled in the barrel.
Color "Nero" is a black resin cap, section, and barrel with silver colored trim. This model came with three different cap ring imprints. This one reads, "Pelikano - Germany".
Nib Medium steel nib. It is smooth and a bit springy. The face of the nib has some wear. It looks like it originally had additional silver colored plating that is coming off. It only looks like a few marks of wear in hand. Pelikan steel nibs tend to be on the wetter side.
Condition Excellent condition. The imprints are easily read and the handwear is low. There is a mark or two on the clip and the aforementioned nib wear. No cracks, chips, dents, or major scratches. It is working well.
