Italian Beauties From La Show

[daynix]

Thanks to all for the very informative posts - and great pics!! The filling system on the Omas is the early pump filler - no piston - that is very tight and fills very nicely.

So beautiful!. Thank you for the incredible and informative post.

Looking at these and at Ricky's growing collection of vintage celluloid Italians...

 

I hope the Italian bug doesn't bite, cos I have other plans!

 

 

 

These are gorgeous pens, though.

Just for completeness for this thread, here's what I bought in LA. There a few non-Italians in there (the pens on the far left) but mostly Italians.

Great purchases,

Columbus, Williamson, Tibaldi, Aurora, a double nibbed Four Way or Cameleon,

would be great see this two nibs one opened in close up, thanks.

Here you go. The pen is a Cameleon. Not an Italian but really cool.

Beautiful pens!

 

Your Ma-stilo pen is quite an Ancora Maxima,

and was made for "Ubaldo Massari, via Roma 16, Torino"!

The nib is a Rapid nib, an Ancora sub-brand.

 

 

Interesting info...

 

Do you know if also "punto rosso" or "stylokopia" or ''tre stelle'' were related to Ancora production? Because there is no trace of Ma-stilo in the trademark registration, but Massari registered these 3 brands.

Here's some information I found on Punto Rosso - "The brothers Pietro and Gerolamo Giacomazzi set up business from 1921 until 1960 in Settimo Torinese City, nearo Torino producing really good pens...The high end line was called Punto Rosso and the pens produced with this name are rare... Ohter lines produced were Olimpica, Sirim, Sirium Extra, Artil, Aviostil, and others... Giacomazzi also produced on demand pens for Milan companies like Silpa and for for Florence companies as Morans and Omer, etc."
