Although safety pens were first manufactured in America around 1894, they were most popular and enjoyed the longest period of popularity in Europe, particularly in France, Germany, and Italy. The latter market was dominated by OLO products until 1924. This pen has a Montblanc nib.

The Endura is one of the most beautiful pieces from the American Conklin company, founded in 1898. The line-engraved pen body and cap, along with its unique wavy-shaped clip, give character to this nearly century-old masterpiece. It is in flawless condition and can be tested upon pickup.
