Hello, I have just received a tiny pen that appears to me to be from late 1920's or early 1930's.

Total length capped: 89 mm, or 2 15/16" (not including the loop at the top of the clip)

The clip has a loop at the top of the cap for hanging the pen as a pendant.

The barrel is imprinted with 2 lines:

"BROADWAY FOUNTAIN PEN"

"U.S. F.P. CO. NY"

and the nib is imprinted with:

"WARRANTED"

"14 KT"

I can't seem to find any online references to US Fountain Pen Company,
and although there are one or two ebay items labeled Broadway Fountain Pen, there is no resemblance at all to this pen design.
I have also looked through some of my reference books, including a 1989 edition of Lambrou's "Fountain Pens Vintage and Modern" with no results, not even a clue...

I would love to hear that someone here has insight or knowledge regarding this manufacturer or this pen.
