$25.00Every desk could use a classic rocker blotter to complete the look of a fountain pen lifestyle. This wooden blotter shows a little wear from use. You unscrew the knob to access and replace the blue blotter paper held within. It has a little ink staining from use but still has a long life of blotting ahead of it. 4 1/4 inches wide by 2 1/8th inches tall.

1920-1929 Fountain Pen Nib Size:
MPrice:
$59.99SOLD!St. Patrick's Day green is a good way to describe this vintage pen. We searched high and low for an imprint on it, but we don't see one. It is too well made to not have an imprint. We think this no-name pen might be related to the National Pen Company, given its pocket clip, but we aren't sure. Nevertheless, we restored it with a new ink sac. You will write a very smooth medium line with its 14k gold Warranted nib. The feed looks a little like a Conklin feed. No cracks or brassing, but you can tell that the celluloid is on its way out. It has the tell-tale signs of decaying, but it isn't krazing, yet. Click the headline for close-ups. 13.5cm capped.

6075 Nupoint Lavender Filling Mechanism:
Lever FillerEra:
1930-1939 Fountain Pen Nib Size:
SFPrice:
$99.99SOLD!Very similar to an oversized Sheaffer Lifetime Flattop, our Nupoint fountain pen is a lovely beast. We think it likely came along later in the late 1920s or early 1930s. It is made of black hard rubber and sports a lavender top "jewel." We restored this vintage pen with a new ink sac. There are no cracks, but it has a little wear and minor hazing. It comes with a large #8 14k gold Warranted nib. You will write a semi-flex line rather smoothly. Flexing from extra-fine to just shy of a millimeter, it offers nice--but not dramatic--line variation. The pocket clip wiggles a bit. 14.1cm capped.

5973 Hechter Travel Pen Filling Mechanism:
Cartridge/ConverterEra:
1980-present Fountain Pen Nib Size:
FPrice:
$29.99Who says pens need to be serious all the time. Some can be serious fun! Take our Hechter Travel Pen for example. It is like writing with an entire safari in Africa. As far as quality goes, it is just a basic fountain pen with a steel nib. It comes with a converter, too. The clip seems to have heavy brassing, and the pen has some wear. There is a little crack in the lip of the cap. Do NOT post the cap on the tail. You will write a fine line with a little feedback. 14cm capped.

5966 Imperial Fountain Pen Filling Mechanism:
Lever FillerEra:
1940-1949 Fountain Pen Nib Size:
SFPrice:
$49.99We think that this is the short-lived Imperial fountain pen made in Nassau, NY. The cap band is imprinted with the Imperial name, much like the very rare Parker Vacumatic pens with a "Vacumatic" engraved in the cap band. We think the trim might be plated-silver that is brassing. A good ink sac has been installed. We love the blue-and-grey design. It comes with an "Imperial" imprinted 14k gold nib. Click the headline for close-ups. You will see the bottom side of the nib is cracked in the photo. You will write a semi-flex line that grows from extra-fine to about 1mm wide. It is a big scratchy. 13.3cm capped.

5950 Senator President Filling Mechanism:
Piston FillerEra:
1980-present Fountain Pen Nib Size:
FPrice:
$149.99They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Clearly, the Montblanc 149 is one well flattered pen. This Senator President fountain pen is an oversized beauty that looks almost brand new. And it also bears a stunning resemblance to the MB 149. However, on this pen, you completely remove the blind cap to advance or retract the piston filler, which still works very smoothly. No cracks, dents, chips nor deep scratches. Its two-tone steel nib is very firm and needs some gentle breaking in from years of not being used. It writes a fine line with some feedback when we broke it in a bit.

5912 Vatican Museums Collectible Pen Filling Mechanism:
BallpointEra:
1980-presentPrice:
$199.99Blessed are those who love writing with a pen from Vatican City. This collectible ballpoint from the Vatican Museums sports themes of landmarks and images from all around the Vatican. It comes with its original box and paper. It features a "Vatican Museums" refill, which is really a Parker-style refill easily found anywhere in the U.S....and probably everywhere else. The Holy Pen Designer seems to have had a thing for modern Parker Duofold ballpoints. The pen is nicely weighted and shows a little light wear from use. 12.9cm.
