Extremely rare vintage Aurora Asterope.-

[Yurigia]

Hello my friend,

 

I suggest to see this sale only to the people without heart problem, specially if they love the vintage italian FP...!!

 

I purpose here for sale probably the most rare Aurora pen ever made in the history, the mithical ASTEROPE...

 

This pen is the second capless pen ever made in the world (after the Pullman) but surely the more rare and searched by all the vintage collectors.

 

It is made starting from the 1934 for a little time, a really little low pieces of this pen was sold due to the high costs and the frequently broken problem... so today it is near impossible to find one in perfectly working and aestethic conditions.

 

Here i have the possibility to sell this pen, that it is in really mint conditions than you can see from the pictures.

 

It is perfectly restored and clean by an expert Aurora repairer and all the mechanism working well and the perishable parts (like the ink sac) are changed and the pen is ready to write if you want use it.

 

The pen is made in black celluloid without any discoloration or deformation, there aren't any major dents or scratches, and the inscription are deep and not consumed.

 

The nib is in 14 kt solid gold and rwally flexible, and his size are comparable with a B or BB Montblanc.

 

If someone have more information about this great models can put his knowledge here with an answer in this topics...!!

 

I think that I say too much about this pen and now I show you the pictures:
