ZENITH EXTRA LAMINATO ORO - Help, please

[Basileus123]

Hi, everyone. I have a ZENITH EXTRA LAMINATO ORO from the seventies.

 

I'd like to ask a professionnal person to repair it (it doesn't writes anymore). Do anybody can give any adress or phone number in Belgium or in Italy ?

 

Thanks.

I too have a ZENITH EXTRA LAMINATO ORO. It's less than 4.5inches. Did you find out anything about the pen?

I have the same pen too, but mine is certainly longer at 5 3/16" capped (I'm just stating the facts, and not trying to start an argument on who has the longer one :ltcapd:)

 

If I'm not mistaken Zenith is a Montegrappa sub-brand.

 

This pen writes well, and the nib is sweet and flexible, but the only quirk I find is that the ink level must not be allowed to drop to less than 1/4, otherwise the flow would start to become intermittent.

Sadly the information on the manufacturing and commercial fortunes of Zenith is very scant. Some accounts place the origins of pens bearing this name to a Mr Morandino of Milan, owner of a stationery outlet and a writing instrument

wholesaler. The pens, ordered from various companies, encompass a large range of styles dating from the thirties through the late fifties. They include overlaid safety pens, colored celluloid models, and series of piston-fillers.

Late Zeniths include some very no-frills models that resemble the Parker 51.

I know of a Zenith brand, as the manufacturers of very nice stapler plierss.

Logo looks the same. Here is the website: http://www.zenithbc.com/index.htm

 

I would like to buy another set of these staplers (the 548) but I seem unable to order them in Holland in an office store. Some online offrings though.

 

AFAIK they do not offer FP any more.
