1935 Pelikan 100 Maenner, with an full 14 K gold overlay. For those of you unfamiliar with this model, in the 1930s Pelikan authorised these Stuttgart jewelers to do their own overlay on the 100. The pens were exquisitely made, there is nothing more to say.

The pattern is a very fine barleycorn except for a smooth cone and ribbed turning knob. Today these pens are extraordinarily uncommon. This one comes out of my collection and is nearly perfect, no dents, or scratches only a tiny area of dings on the backside of the turning knob. In truth it is nicer than the pen it replaces, but I use my pens and was always nervous about damage.

Thise may be the best pen I have ever been able to offer on the site. It is not cheap, but you may never be offered another. The nib is to customer specification. $4800
