Hello.
I have a Wahl-Eversharp Doric Junior for sale. It's a 1st generation lever-filled pen (#72) in 'Jet Black'. It has a nice, smooth #2-sized nib marked 'FLEXIBLE'. It's a slender pen, has (what I presume is) the original owner's name engraved into the barrel and it caught a lot of marks over the years. There is some slight brassing on the clip and the cap band and there's a crack just below the cap band along with one or two other hairline cracks, but there's no crystallisation from what my untrained eye can see. The pen is not restored - hence it needs a new sac to fill.

Provided below is a couple pictures of the pen along with a writing sample (DIPPED). As previously mentioned, the pen cannot fill as it is right now - but I hope the buyer can breathe life into this 80 year old pen and enjoy its great nib.

Asking $50. Trades and offers are considered.

I will be shipping from Denmark. You have two options: Tracked shipping $18 and untracked shipping $7. Payment via PayPal.

Hi katherine.

Untracked shipping is 'just' $7 and I document the shipping process with several pictures of packing and shipping the pen :)
