For sale is a very nice Matador Express 811 from the late 1930's.
Matador are in general very well made and high quality pens and somewhat difficult to find. This one is in nice condition and was completely overhauled, fitted with a new cork seal, filled and tested for a period of two weeks. I can guarantee that it fills, and writes as ist should. This pen shows only moderate signs of use and age.
In General, Matador have very well performing nibs. This #3 nib is no exception. It writes a smooth and wet line somewhere between Fine and Medium and does flex nicely with slight pressure.
My price is ($240) new: $220 inclusive word wide shipping (paypal)
Send me a PM if you are interested.
