For Sale: $50 shipped CONUS
I have for sale a Majestic pen in flashy brown celluloid. I have fully disassembled the pen, cleaned it, installed a new sac, reassembled it, lightly posished it, written several pages with it, then cleaned it again. It is 5" capped. 6.25" posted, 4.75" unposted. The nib is a nice fine/medium semiflex, HOWEVER, the feed will not keep up with flexy shenanigans. The writing sample I provided was made by actuating the lever to flood the feed before each flexy stroke. It will provide the occasional flourish but nothing like the illustration on the page without actuating the lever before each stroke. It has an awesome inkview section and writes well. The pen appears to have a slight banana shape when the cap is on. I can't tell if it's the cap or the body or both but it is very slight and I thought I would mention it because a proper OCD pen person would notice it. There is some brassing on the shiny bits. Overall it is a great vintage pen with a nice semiflex nib. Shipping is via USPS priority to CONUS.
