Hi all,

These pens all have been restored and are ready to fill with ink and use.

If you see one or more pens that you like, please reply to me at:

If you intend to make a purchase, please read "Rules, shipping,
etcetera" at the bottom of this post.

4. 1940's Croxley fountain pen in green and black pearl. These pens
were made in England. I have always liked the Art Deco stepped chevron
clip and lever tab on these. There is a bit of brassing down the
center ridge on the lever. The nib is a smooth Extra Fine 14 Ct. with
a bit of flex. Capped the pen measures 4 15/16 inches or 12.5 cm. It
is what I would classify as a standard size pen in length and
diameter. This is a really beautiful pen with a high cool factor!

Price $165.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

5. c. 1933 Parker Streamline Duofold Jr. in sea green pearl with black
veining. This one was made in Canada. The barrel has some typical
discoloration. It has the name S.C. Courtney imprinted on the barrel.
The ball of the clip has some brassing. I marked the writing sample as
an extra fine, but I think it is actually a Fine 14K. It is a smooth,
wet writer with some flex. It is a duplicate in my collection, so I
decided to sell it. It is a button fill. Capped the pen measures 4
11/16 inches or 11.9 cm.

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

6. c. 1936 Waterman's Ink-Vue "Standard" in Emerald Ray. On a seam in
the plastic, on the side of the center of the cap, is a hairline
separation, that appears did not get bonded when the cap was made.
Also, the metal emblem on the barrel end has been replaced. The pen
appears to have had very little use. The green transparent segments in
the barrel have no ambering. The silver colored trim is very nice with
only micro scratches on the cap band and lever. The filler bulb under
the lever has been replaced and tested. The barrel imprint is crisp
with sharp raised edges. The nib is a keyhole #7 "Red". The pen
appears to be in Near Mint condition.

Price reduced to $295.00 (final reduction) shipping included in the U.S.
Shipping to other countries is $25.00 extra, for Express International Mail.

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, which is $24.75 to most countries,
except Canada, which is less. I can also ship to other countries by
by Express International Mail, if you request it, but it is costly.

Return Policy: I will always allow pens, or other items, to be
returned. If there is 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.

Happy penning!

That Waterman's Art Deco pen is stunning, lovely and I am sure, worth the money. Your price for the Croxley is very optimistic - here in England anyway. They are very fine pens, pretty much as good as a Conway-Stewart or a Swan, I have several, but £100? Not here I'm afraid.

Do I need to respond to your comments on my pens, Cob? I think not, some things are better left unsaid. Everyone can just read between the lines, I think... :)

Probably not then!

Good luck with them.
