My usual disclaimer here: I am not a professional pen restorer rather I am a self taught pen repairman. The pens I am offering up aren't usually Mint/Near Mint/Excellent condition and the prices reflect that fact. These were user grade pens from a bygone era. My attempt is to bring them back to life in the hopes that they will be used as the wonderful tools of creation they once were. Where applicable I use Richard Binders website for repair information, Pen Identification and a myriad of other nuggets of wisdom. I have replaced the sacs in these pens, cleaned and polished them. They have been reassembled with care and as much precision as I am able to accomplish.

1. Moore Pen Co. 72 with Waterman's Medium Flex Nib - This pen came to me with a mangled Moore nib. I waited attempting to find a suitable Moore nib, and after experimenting with this Waterman's nib, I decided this fit much nicer. The pen writes a lovely wet Medium nib with decent flex (see writing sample). The pen is missing it's ringtop and has some plate loss on the cap band. It has some microscratches but nothing major. 55 USD

2. Weidlich Pen Co. Debutante Celluloid Fine Flex - This Cream/Brown/Black celuloid lever filler is a wonderful writer. It puts down a wet Fine line with a LOT of flex, Easy Flex for sure, bordering on Super Flex. The nib is very responsive, moving from true to flex back to true with minimal pressure. The pen is solid with just a touch of plate loss at the top of the lever. Otherwise there is only light microscratches due to the pens age. 75 USD
