FS: Two Waterman's Blue Streaks, pearl grey or jet black, 14k flex, lever fillers!
SOLD: Two Waterman's Blue Streak fountain pens. What is unusual about these pens is that they are traditional lever-fillers, but in pens Waterman had originally marketed with Ink-Vue Type 2 filler mechanisms. In other words, they would've had a hidden bulb compressed by a hinged lever, filling the barrel (rather than a sac) that had an ink view window. But look closer.
See Jim Mamoulides's webpage about these pens, and note the budget model with the full length lever and colors available.
SOLD - The Pearl Grey
The Jet Black is a Canada pen with matching Canada Ideal 14k semiflex nib. The cap and barrel ends are stepped, but like the cap found on the Type 2 Ink-Vue, it has a gold button in the center. The cap has scratches near the top and has a round 3mm gouge on one side. The barrel has fine scratches under the cap lip. Ideal globe clip. A member has brought me up to date on this pen, which turns out to be one of the Blue Streak versions the Canadians were producing as they morphed from Ink-Vue Type 2 mechanisms through to lever-fillers, on the way to eventually creating a Blue Streak celluloid pen with the top-mounted clip, rivet and lever that the Commando used. Thank you, Bob!
