faf Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Hi everyone, I bought a new pen recently but I can't say what model it is. I was thinking about the cc 221 but the number is not engraved on the cap, maybe the classic but i have no information about it. Or the generation. Please help me Thanks a lot Link to post Share on other sites
Dillo Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Hi, It's not the Generation since the Generation has a different cap band. The pen seems to be one of the older Classics. The later classics had a grip section similar to the one on the Generation. Dillon Stolen: Aurora Optima Demonstrator Red ends Medium nib. Serial number 1216 and Aurora 98 Cartridge/Converter Black bark finish (Archivi Storici) with gold cap. Reward if found. Please contact me if you have seen these pens.Please send vial orders and other messages to fpninkvials funny-round-mark-thing gmail strange-mark-thing com. My shop is open once again if you need help with your pen.Will someone with the name of "Jay" who emailed me through the email system provide me an email address? There was no email address provided, so I can't write back.Dillon Link to post Share on other sites

JLS1 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 thanks a lot ! yes I noticed that the genreation does not have the "triangles" on the nib section ! and any idea of the years of production ? thanks for your help ! I found this page via Google; scroll down to the Gallery and you'll see a 221, which looks very close to your Classic. Based on the info there, I'd say your pen is probably from late 70's-early/mid 80's(?). Of course, I could be wrong (and have been...often). HTH! Link to post Share on other sites

Yes ! you're right, according to this page the classic must have been produced after 1979 but before the generation. thanks a lot for your help I appreciate ! Link to post Share on other sites

The transition was 24 ---> 221 ---> early Classic ---> late Classic ---> Generations with lots of spinoffs like some Monte Rosas and the Carrera and Carressas.

colrehogan Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I have a 221 whose papers called it a 221P. Any idea what the P stands for? Sorry to hijack the thread. Smith Premier No. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
