"Barrel threads are worn and the cap doesn't secure"
I have several pens with a similar problem. Is it possible to fix it? If you put a transparent celluloid and make a new thread?

It looks like a French pen. There are many safety pens produced in this color from different producers - small and anonymous. Typical of French pens that have nibs of 18 carat gold.

Are produced after 1950 and mine is about 1956 because it is a new type of Pelikan nib.

In Milan was factory PeliKan. I've seen such a pen in two versions - with a transparent window and with one like mine. Pattern of both is the same, and the inscription. Just in different years have used a different pen for this model. Examples:

I guess these pens labeled Milan they were earlier, but postwar. Differences with my pens are wide cap lip to the rings, inscription Milano, the nib section - old version and green ink window. I think this nib is was made in Germany - original, italic type. Later nibs are manufactured in Italy - for example CN with heart hole and some gold with Italian label.
http://www.thepengui...kan_history.jsp quote:
"Foreign production was also resumed, this time only in Milan and using old equipment for the manufacture of hard rubber pens imported presumably from Hannover. Over the next few years, Milan produced not just pre-war pens, but a number of variants. Some of the most interesting of these pens were 100N pocket and desk pens made without a Binde. The colored celluloid was integral to the barrel and not an overlaid band as had been the case with virtually every Pelikan made up to that time. The nibs and clips were also unique to the facility. Production in Milan did not last long, however, due to quality issues. Today, the immediate postwar Milan pens are highly valued by many of the more compulsive Pelikan collectors."

These are interesting pens. I think they are more successful than the German model, because there are no problems with crystallization of the end of the barrel and a fracture of celluloid sleeve.Thus were made new special editions M101N. Similar exist in databases in penboard.de with better pictures.
