Well, I posted this in the Waterman brand forum, but it seems not many people go there, so I thought I would put it here too. Most of these pens are pretty hard to find. The Toledo is close to impossible.

I was taking pictures of my pens, and decided to group some of the more unusual Waterman overlays together. Maybe some of you will enjoy seeing them.

From L to R: First four pens are the Oriental pattern either labeled 0512 1/2 PSF or 0552 1/2, 72 Toledo Half Overlay, 0514 Chased Filigree, 14 Silver Filigree over RHR, 412 over RHR, 452 over RHR, 454 Moderne ( called Night and Day by modern collectors).

Third pen from the left was apparently meant to be an eye dropper, and lever slot was cut later. The clip on that one was also added later.

Very nice pens! Overlay pens, especially ones with interesting patterns or filigree like yours, are possibly my favourites to collect.

My grail pen is not a specific pen, an overlay with repousse flowers, probably about a hundred years old, so I am forever looking at overlay pens on ebay. This collection of yours is outstanding!
