    Question Hello,

    I am a new member and buy interesting vintage fountain pens. This may be the wrong place to ask this question. If so I apologise. I am really stumped by this piston pen and wonder if anyone can help me identify it. It needs restoration but without knowing the name difficult. If any expert geeks out there can help it would be much appreciated, kind regards

    Welcome! Are you sure it is a piston pen? It looks like a button on the end and the end cap may be missing? If it is a button filler then it just needs a new sac installed which isn't too hard.

    Hello and welcome to FPG.

    Your pen looks like a button filler with a missing blind cap to me too. The marking on the clip could just be a personalised monogram, or a Company monogram, and nothing to do with the brand name of the pen.

    Welcome home. Pull up a stump and set a spell. Looks like one of the many button fillers missing the blind cap; generally lumped as NoNami's. The logo is kinda sorta like the well known upscale Mabie Todd & Company logo that was a T superposed over an M.

    Thanks guys. Yes guys you will see from my post that I know little about pens. I am further forward knowing it is a button filler. I have been trying for ages to identify this maker. I feel a little better now I know it isn't my poor research skills, many thanks everyone for your response.
