Cap: Good condition; overlay engraved <<18KR>>

Nib: Fair condition; not the original one; engraving: <<WARRANTED 14 Cts 585>>

Comments: The pen has been fully disassembled, cleaned, fitted with a 14k used nib, and a new cork seal; the barrel had a crack near the beginning that has been repaired; the pen writes reasonably well, M line, wet, yielding, moderate feedback

Historical note: From its looks, the pen could be from ca 1920; the "KR" on the overlays could come from German "karats", suggesting a German manufacture
