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.

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.

1980-present Fountain Pen Nib Size:
SFPrice:
$149.99Namiki Falcon pens have a cult-like following...with good reason. These are amazing Japanese pens. No frills design and a strange looking nib hide the fact it is a stunning writer. Our pre-owned pen sports a 14k gold "SB" nib. That translates into "Soft Broad." In truth, Japanese broad nibs are more like American and European medium nibs, but the "soft" means it is a semi-flex nib that can go up to about 1mm wide. Pretty damned close to buttery smooth, too. Our pen comes with a converter, but it also can take Pilot cartridges. 13.6cm capped.

Lever FillerEra:
1930-1939 Fountain Pen Nib Size:
SFPrice:
$999.99What makes the Wahl-Eversharp Gold Seal fountain pen is it screw-in "Signature" nib system, which allowed customers to be certain they got the nib that was best for them. This lastest vintage pen, also known as a Decoband, comes with a 14k gold nib with an F marked on the inkfeed--indicating a fine point. However, when we dipped it, we found that with a little feedback it could write from an extra fine to just short of a millimeter. Fully restored with a new ink sac, this classic pen is ready for action. You can see some discoloration in the original black and pearl design. No cracks but some wear from use. Its matching pencil is in the same condition, working with a 1.1mm lead that is red! Pen measures 13.7cm capped.

$1,750.00Where to start?! Oversized, blue-on-blue lapis...a buttery smooth semi-flex nib! Admit it. You're already salivating over this Wahl-Eversharp Gold Seal/Decoband. It is one of the best vintage pens we have posted this year. Fully restored with a new ink sac, the fountain pen has few flaws. The barrel is clearly still blue, but it is three or four shades darker than the cap and pencil. The only brassing is on the ball of the pocket clip. No cracks nor scratches. The writing experience is second to none. It can be a buttery smooth extra-fine, but with just a little gentle pressure it can write a 1mm line. The pencil still works with a 1.1mm lead. It has a little brassing on the nose cone and pocket-clip ball. The lead only advances; you have to push it in to retract it. No eraser. Pen measures 13.55cm capped.

$249.99You just can't overlook the stunning beauty of the green-and-quartz pebble design of this beautiful Franklin-Christoph 46 fountain pen. In near-mint condition it steals everyone's attention. The only think that might impress you more is that it has a 14k gold semi-flex nib. We think it was intended to be a full-flexi, but it feels firm fine when we write with it. You'll need to engage the flex with a little more intentionality. This oversized pen also includes its original standard international converter. No pocket clip on the cap. That is just how these came. 13.5cm capped. Click the headline for close-ups.

$99.99We search far and wide for all the latest and greatest pens. Today we are very excited to showcase a gigantic pen from India's Ranga Pen Company. We don't know the model name, but we do know that it is made from a fantastic blue-and-tan hard rubber. Like a really old vintage pen, you fill this with an eyedropper. It can definitely hold a lot of ink. As a special treat, it comes preloaded with a two-tone steel "FPR Flex" nib. FPR stands for Fountain Pen Revolution. While it has flex, we consider it more of a semi-flex than a wet-noodle flex. Nevertheless, you will write from about a medium to more than 1mm wide! This pen looks brand new to us. 15cm capped.
