Thank you

Thank you for the photographs. Unfortunately I did not have my camera that day.

It was fun and economically impacting as always.

This time we had the "special guest" Syd, aka Wahlnut, the Wahl-Eversharp FPN moderator. He was in Italy for a personal trip and decided to stop by for the Pen Show.

It was a pleasure to speak with him and to have the chance to see all these WE at one time.

 

All what I can post is the haul of the day, photographed once at home.

 

First, two addition to my "Aurora 88 Dinasty" collection:

Those from Milan are the Duocart second gen NOS complete with carts and shop stand and the black Auretta first gen. Also in the picture are two Auretta second gen (red and green) and a Duocart first gen.

 

Then I got this Pelikan 100N:

Very nice and conserved barrel and nibs, the cap is so-so.

 

Finally, a diverse group of Sheaffer's from 20s to 90s:

You can play the identification game here, not an easy job!
