− | <noinclude></noinclude>Italian brand, on which there is very little historical information. It's known for the production of 18 carat gold [[overlay]]s for safeties (marked 18 KR) of excellent workmanship, with beautiful decorations cantilevered or [[filigree]]. The ''Europa'' brand is listed on both in the pen and the nib. According to the reconstruction by Paolo Enrico Demuro<ref>in [https://issuu.com/foolishmagazinebypennamania/docs/foolish_3_300dpi_online_issuu an article] in Foolish Magazine.</ref> the brand, not having been registered (in fact, it does not appear in the Central State Archive database of historical trademarks) would have been used in sharing by Luigi Diani, [[Cesare Marinai]] and the [[Fratelli Cavaliere]]. | + | <noinclude></noinclude>Italian brand, on which there is very little historical information.

− | Non è noto con certezza una data certa di inizio della produzione, ma secondo la ricostruzione storica fatta da Giorgio Fascicolo<ref>in [https://forum.fountainpen.it/viewtopic.php?t=30726 questa dettagliatissima presentazione di una penna con questo marchio.</ref> la prima apparizione del marchio fra le stilografiche illustrate sul catalogo Marinai è in quello del [[1931]], risultando invece assente nei precedenti; per questo motivo assumeremo questo anno come quello dell'inizio della produzione.

The production sold by Marinai reports explicitly the ''CM'' punch. Production continued also after the war, with hooded nib pens with laminated metal coating (as in [https://forum.fountainpen.it/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=19537 this example]). | | It is not clear whether the brand was linked to an independent company or a third party production.
