1 dozen dip pen nibs stamped "U.S. Railroad Administration -- No. 1." New old stock, never used nibs. These are a great slice of railroad history and they are nice writers too. The sample of writing shown in the picture was done with one of these nibs.
Note 1: Vintage dip pen nibs often have a protective coating that needs to be washed off before using or they won't write properly.
Note 2: The United States Railroad Administration was the name of the nationalized railroad system of the United States between 1917 and 1920
