1930s Conklin Nozac Senior V-Line (black, piston filler, GPT, 14k EF Cushion Point nib). Measures 5 5/16” capped. This is the largest, 14-sided, Oversized/Senior model, corresponding to the 7,000W size (but without the word gauge markings). Piston filler with huge ink capacity. Visulated barrel to view ink level with herringbone pattern. Large, proper, 14k Cushion Point nib is very firm, laying down smooth, and consistent EF line. The stubbish profile with plenty of tipping material, which I’ve seen now and again on Nozacs, leads me to wonder if Conklin didn’t specially design these as manifold nibs.
Condition: Cleaned and fully restored with piston filler outfitted with new O-rings from David Nishimura. Guaranteed to hold a full barrel of ink and operate smoothly without leaks. Condition is excellent with no chips, cracks, personal engravings, bent or misaligned tines, missing/mismatched parts, or threading problems. Smooth and lustrous finish to the surface of the celluloid. No brassing to the trim discernible to the naked eye, but I was able to spot a thin sliver to the very edge/bottom of the cap band around about 1/4 of it under magnification (zoom into 2nd photo). Transparency is excellent, but a bit ambered in color (see 4th photo). Fully legible imprint (see 5th photo). Nibble marks present on all sides of the blind cap, but none on the barrel. A great writer, capacious filler, and beautiful example of one of the most iconic American pens of the 30s.
Price: $220 $205 195 SOLD
(includes USPS First-Class with tracking to CONUS locations. USPS Priority available for an additional $4. Please contact me for international shipping, for which delivery confirmation is required).

Order, Payment, & Guarantee: Pens are placed on hold for the first person to PM me with firm request to purchase, to which I’ll reply with payment details. If I haven't received Paypal payment within 24 hrs, then they become available to the next person. All pens are guaranteed to be in the condition in which I've described them. If I've missed something or the filling mechanism is not fully functional, the buyer may contact me up to 7 days after receiving the pen for a full refund (issued once I receive the pen back in the same condition as sold). I've sold pens online for about a decade. Please check my past listings here as well as on the classifieds and historical sales forums on FPN (username: Estragon) for some of my previous offerings.
