On the early Writers Editions Hemingway, Agatha Christie and Oscar Wilde, no counterfeits are so far known. A complete certainty does not however exist with brand counterfeits. If fakes do turn up at some point, they can so far reliably be identified based on the nib. It is on these editions the most reliable authenticity feature.

Sind von den ersten "Writer\'s" also Hemingway, Agatha Cristie und Oscar Wild schon Fälschungen aufgetaucht?
Und sollte dies leider der Fall sein, gibt es Tipps diese zu erkennen?

Hallo Pikrin,
uns sind zumindest keine entsprechenden Fälle bei diesen Editionen bekannt.
Aber bei den Fälschern weiß man ja nie :(
Gruß
Michael
PS: ABER spätestens an der Feder kann man bisher alle Fakes einfach identifizieren.
