1. "Fat" Touchdown Statesman - This is a full-sized, "fat" Touchdown pen in black. Very clean pen - minimal brassing and small scratches. Imprint is very crisp. This pen seems to have seen very little use over the years. Has the characteristic, very large 14k two-tone open nib. Has a new seal and new sac. Nib is a firm fine. Some ambering to ink window, but very clean metal threads without serious corrosion. A really nice, very clean example of a late 1940s "fat" Touchdown. $55 shipped in the lower 48 states.

2. Slender Balance SOLD - another pretty clean pen. Black and pearl 1930s-era slender Balance. Very modest discoloration to celluloid - color is quite good on this one. Firm, fine Lifetime two-tone nib. This is a smooth, fine nib - an excellent writer. New sac. Would make a nice pocket pen or note taker, even 85+ years later. $50 shipped in the lower 48 states.
