Okay, I feel like I've done something productive today.

 

On Jan 19, 2008, these were my Italian pens (except for an Omas that was then in hiding but since found):

As of today, and excluding those currently out at the "health spa," these are the ones I now have, alphabetical by maker:

Omas Spina di Pesce FP and RB (arco celluloid 30 piece experimental LE in old style Bologna design)

 

Are you sure that the production run of the FP was only 30? I just got one at Fetti, but didn't know its date or number. Still, a nice addition to the Paragon Bronze Arco.

All those modern sets based the old (30s-50s, hence not Bologna) round pre-torpedo Omas design are rare sets. Marco at Novelli told me there were 35 Arco brown (usual Arco cut, not Spina di Pesce) and 20 Arco green. When I was shown the Spina di Pesce, I was told how many, but I can't recall. It was a super low number though, 30 doesn't strike me as weird based on the other Arcos. More recently there's the Burkina set, and they made all of 137 of those.
