Description: This is a magnificient Vintage mid 1920's Europa Safety Fountain Pen in 18K Rolled Gold with 14K Solid Gold MF Nib. The 14K Nib retracts demonstrated in photos 6,7,8 and 9, by turning the black knob at the barrel end seen in photo 12. I have dip tested this fountain pen and it writes beautifully but the nib retracts with any pressure, I am not sure if it locks or how to lock it. This Europa is almost a hundred years old, and in this condition, a very rare treasure.
