2. circa 1946 Waterman's "W5" fountain pen in black, made in England.
The trim is not perfect on this pen. There are little bump marks on
the clip and several on the large center cap band. There is some
brassing on both edges of the clip. The nib is a smooth writing fat
Fine 14K (Ct.)

3. 1940's Eversharp Skyline pen and pencil set in burgundy. The caps
are silver plastic with red pinstripes. The pencil is functioning as
it should and I put a couple of extra "square" leads under the click
button/eraser. The pencil has a burgundy plastic cone, typical of
wartime manufacture, when metals were rationed. The only brassing I
found, on either the pen or pencil, is some pitting on the cap band of
the fountain pen. The pen has some light sun fading on dome and
barrel. The nib is a smooth writing rigid Fine in 14K. This is a full
standard size set.

Price reduced to $125.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

4. 1930's Conklin in burgundy pearl and black. I am not sure what the
model of this one is, I suspect it is a student model, of some sort.
It has rounded end, like a Symetrik. It is a lever fill. The top end
of the cap has some discoloration to the burgundy pearl. There is no
other damage that I can see. The pen is a slender model and capped
measures 5 inches or 12.7 centimeters. The nib is a very smooth
writing Medium Stub 14K. It has some flexiblity, and makes nice
shading to about a broad width, with moderate pressure. The pen was
made in Toledo, Ohio.

Price reduced to $145.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

5. 1928 Parker Duofold Junior fountain pen in "Lacquer-red"
Permanite plastic. The gold filled clip and bands have zero brassing.
The only damage is light marks on the vertical edge of the cap end,
and the milling on the cap end is worn. It could be upgraded with a
better cap end. The barrel imprint is crisp and sharp. The nib is a
smooth writing Extra Fine (bordering on Fine) 14K. In the shot of the
pen with the cap off, I also took the end cap off, so the fill button
could be seen. The brass fill button was so clean I did not bother to
polish, which I do not see often. This is a very nice example of a
late Junior flattop.

Price reduced to $225.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

6. 1928 Wahl flattop oversize fountain pen in black and white pearl,
with Greek Key cap band. The roller clip, cap bands and lever have no
brassing. There is a bit of discoloration in the barrel around the
lever slot and a bit off to the side and some very slight
discoloration in the lower half of the cap. The cap has some age
cracks, which I was aware of when I bought the pen. I am pricing the
pen considerably lower than I would if they were not present. I
honestly believe they are nothing to worry about, if it were a pen I
planned on keeping, it would not bother me. The nib is a semi-flexible
Extra Fine "Signature" 14K. It takes a bit of pressure to make about a
1 mm wide line. The pen capped measures 5 5/16 inches.

Price reduced to $350.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

Rules, Shipping, Etc.

The usual rules apply, the person sending the first e-mail on an item
~stating intent to purchase~ gets the item. I will give you 5 days to
decide if you like the pen or not. I prefer payment by PayPal but also
accept checks or money orders in USD. I can only accept payment by
PayPal from countries outside the U.S. I ship worldwide, so
international customers are always welcome.

Prices are post paid in the U.S., and will be shipped with a tracking
number and insurance. I normally ship inside the U.S. by U.S.
Postal Service Priority Mail. I can also ship to other countries by
Priority Mail, but I prefer to ship by Express International Mail. I
have to charge $20.00 to $30.00 USD extra by Express International
Mail, depending on which country the item will be sent to, but it can
be insured and can usually be tracked online.

Return Policy: I will always allow pens, or other items, to be
returned as long as it is not for a frivolous reason and the item is
returned in the same condition as when it was shipped from here. If
there should be a problem I would prefer the chance to fix the problem
or replace the item, when and if possible. Otherwise a full refund
will be offered. If you find a problem and choose to send the item
(pen, mechanical pencil, etc.) to someone else to be corrected, I will
not be responsible for any other problems.

All pens have been restored inside and outside, nibs adjusted and
smoothed, when necessary, clips tightened, etc. I give a lot of
attention to minute details on a pen, that some would not notice. All
pens and pencils will be in good working condition unless noted
otherwise. The pens have been ink tested. I restore the pens I sell,
as if they were going into my personal pen collection.

Happy penning!
