Description from the seller

1932ca Oversize OMAS EXTRA Jet Black Celluloid with lever filler for Enclopedia Treccani -one the rarest

WOW!

Offering a museum piece: this is the earliest among the Oversized OMAS fountain pens!
it’s also the pen manufactured by OMAS showing the collaboration since the early stage with Enciclopedia Treccani, a real Italian institution, lasted until the nineties.

It is one of the most iconic pen they have ever manufactured:

1) the material: pure celluloid.
2) the color: jet black
3) the shape: the Omas signature round shaped conic design
4) the size: oversize model with 14.20 cm in length closed
5) the Greek key on the cap: the sign of elegant and distinction
6) the lever filler: simple, clean that give great lightness to the pen
7) the clip: Ruzzolina style!!
8) the nib: the famous Omas super flexible nib
9) the heart hole: only the earliest nib has the heart shaped hole
10) the brand: icon of the Italian design and style

really rare to find a pen almost 90 years old with this condition.

the pen is in working order.

it is long 14.20 cm closed.
cap length: 4.80 cm
barrel length: 12.20 cm
pen posted length: 16.30 cm

it is the first model ever produced by Omas and so that is lever filler.

the cap has the classic OMAS Greek Key framed by two rings.

the barrel reads: OMAS EXTRA – very crisp and ENCICLOPEDIA ITALIANA TRECCANI

the clip is the super classic OMAS shape with “Ruzzolina”

the nib is the usual 14kt gold super flexible from OMAS that reads: OMAS EXTRA 14KT.

finally, you will not see a scarce pen like this with this condition very often

a real masterpiece: don’t miss it!!
