I worked on a new batch from the large lot of n.o.s. old German pens I obtained beginning of this year.
So here they are!
It is the model #1 as I called it in my earlier postings on FPN.
Specs:
Made in Germany
Manufactured around 1935.
No name or brand on the pens. Nibs branded 'Edel'
Material: Barrel & Cap: Black Thermoplastic, top and blind end cap: Bakelite, Section, feeder and piston mechanism parts: Ebonite.
Clip: gold color plated steel. (Plating material unknown, but probably not gold). Inside parts are made of cork (piston), ZAMAK metal in the piston rod and ebonite tubing and filler knob.
Filling system: piston (refurbished original corks). The pen has a blind cap to cover the filling knob.
Steel nib that is remarkably flexible. The nib is stamped: 'Edel - Chromstahl - 1 Qual'
Flex runs from F to BBB (Differs a bit for each pen, all nibs have a slightly different character).
Manufactured supposedly around 1935, never used (New old stock) and completely restored and rebuilt by me.
Dimensions: (small differences can occur as the pens were practically made by hand):
Closed: 134 mm
Without cap: 124 mm
Posted: 170 mm
Diam. over barrel: 11.85 mm
Diam over the cap: 13.36 mm
