RETURN PRIVILEGES, POSTAGE and WARRANTEES (see website for complete information):
You have five (5) days from receipt of a pen to return it for any reason. All pens are restored unless specifically noted in
the description. Postage & Insurance are additional. All pens are shipped insured. For shipments in the US we prefer
USPS, and outside the US we prefer Express Mail International. We will of course use other shippers at customer
request.
Generally, our pens are warranted for 90 days. Unfortunately, we sometimes cannot restore some modern pens (post1970) due to lack of parts or inaccessibility to the mechanisms (many modern pen companies manufacturer their pens
with the plan that no restoration will ever be done). If we can’t restore the pen, you may still have some recourse through
the manufacturer or distributor. We can provide contact information for you on request. Thank you for your understanding.
NIBS: Note: A Semi-Flex nib will flex with moderate pressure. A light hand will see no line variation.
When reading item descriptions, please assume each nib is original for its pen, and is 14K gold, unless otherwise noted.

Extraordinary Pens
1
Conklin
1920
#3 Crescent-fill in gold-filled "Hand Engraved Vine." Conklin is known to have created some of the finest
and most beautiful overlays, and this one is no exception. GF lock-ring. Clipless model. Fine, semi-flexible
nib. Indicia beautifully engraved, “C.H.Ludde.’ Near mint.
$1000
2
Conklin
1921
#4 size Crescent-fill in Cardinal Hard Rubber. Excruciatingly rare! GFT, with the filler crescent marked on
both sides. Correct BHR gripping section. GFT. Fine, extra-flexible nib. A tad of imprint wear (fully
readable), and a tad of brassing to the very bottom edge of the cap band, otherwise near mint.
$1350
3
Conklin
1932
Nozac Oversize 7M Word Gauge 12-sided Faceted PIF in Red & Silver Herringbone. Taking advantage of
the visualated barrel, and to promote it's large capacity, Conklin imprinted a gauge running up the side of
the barrel to show how many words the remaining ink would write. The gauge on this model runs from 1M
(thousand) to 7M. GFT, including the chased cap band and “Rocker” clip. Medium/fine nib. Generally
found with damage to the cap lip, this one is perfect! Near mint+.
$1400
4
Montblanc
1935
124PL Meisterstuck Push Knob-fill (button) in Platinum, perhaps Montblanc’s most beautiful celluloid.
GFT. Two-tone medium, flexible nib. Near mint+

13
Parker
1950
51 Princess Demi Aerometric-fill in smooth gold-filled. Cap top & barrel bottom each with a large white
glass crystal, and the cap surrounded by 12 diamond shaped red glass crystals. According to Zazove &
Shepherd in their Parker 51 book (2004, p. 71), “The rarest Demi in existence...was designed by Don
Doman and introduced in the mid west USA. Only a limited number were made and it never went into full
production. Furthermore, it did not feature in Parker Advertisements.” Different size, shape and color
jewels were used. Correct with no clip. Medium nib. Near mint+ (could be new-old-stock). You will
probably never find another!
$2200
14
Waterman
1928
994 LF in Rose Ripple. One of the rarest and most beautiful of colors. Few were made because the country
was entering the depression and few high end pens were selling, the rubber turned out to be very fragile so
few survived, and the same year Waterman very shortly afterwards introduced their first plastic pen, the
Patrician, which was very successful. GFT. Fine, flexible nib. Near mint+
$1200
15
Waterman
1930
494 LF in sterling silver "Bay Leaf" overlay (rare). One of Waterman's most beautiful patterns. Ex-fine,
extra-flexible nib. Barrel indicia lightly engraved "J.J.S." Outstanding near mint condition.
$1900
16
Waterman
1930
Patrician LF in Moss Agate. The pride of the Waterman pen line! Waterman was late to the gate when it
came to switching from rubber to plastic pens. They had invested a lot of time and money to develop
colored ripple pens (olive, rose, blue-green) and wanted to recoup investment by producing in those
materials. Eventually, they saw the handwriting on the wall and switched to plastic, introducing the now
iconic Patrician. GFT. Medium, flexible nib! Near mint.
$1500
Featured Pen - Vintage Pilot/Namiki “Capless” - “Vanishing Point”
The “Capless,” a name the Pilot Corporation penned in 1961, continues to this day. The first models operated like a twist-activated ball pen. A
second mechanism was introduced in 1964 which works like a button-activated ball pen, first made for students, and completely replacing the twistoperated mechanism by 1967. For a year or so around 1968 there was even a gravity model operated by sliding the clip downwards. From around
1994 to 1999 these were labeled “Namiki” instead of “Pilot” (the exception is the “Raden” model). The “Capless” was renamed “Vanishing Point”
around 1973. These are all cartridge/converter-fill pens, with different proprietary cartridges and converters used through the years.

The “20" was Parker’s answer to the Waterman 52 – it was the everyday, low frills user for the masses. While Waterman used the lever
for filling, Parker used the button. The 20 was produced in several lengths and in smooth, straight line chased and wave chased. Nibs
were always 14K gold and came in many nib widths and styles. Here’s a nice grouping for your consideration.
