Help With Info Regarding A Vintage Fp Bought In Vienna

Recommended Posts

I recently visited the WFW shop in Vienna, Austria, and purchased a lovely vintage button-filler fountain pen. The shop owner said that though the pen was unmarked, he believes it is most likely a vintage made-in-Austria Tempo. The body is celluoid, the section of hard rubber. On the nib, the words say "WARRANTED 14 Ct 1st QUALITY".

 

I am a little unsure if I heard him saying it was made in the 1960s, because on the certificate he provided me, it said "1930s".

 

I was wondering if anyone could provide any information to help in identifying the make or placing the time period of this pen?

 

TIA!

To be honest, it doesn't look anything like a Pelikan to me.

 

I could believe anything from the mid-1930s to the mid-1950s (I have a Staedtler with this sort of 1930s look to it, but the piston seal is plastic, hence presumably post-war).

 

Is there any barrel imprint, possibly a very faint one?
