Product Name Crescent, Model 20 (the imprint reads "Trade Mark 20").
Manufacturer and Year Conklin, Toledo Ohio – circa 1920s
Length 5-3/8"
Filling System Crescent filler. We've restored it with a new sac and it's working very well.
Color Black chased hard rubber with gold plated trim.
Nib FLEXIBLE MEDIUM-FINE Conklin #2 Toledo nib is very smooth with nice tipping. Fully flexible with line variation from medium to a nice double broad with very little pressure. See writing sample below.
Condition Excellent superior condition. Very crisp and dark chased hard rubber. There are some small spots of light scratching on the cap and barrel and a few marks on the end of the barrel but no serious scratches, no cracks or chips, and no personalization. There's a tiny spot of brassing on one side of the clip and a small dot of brassing on either side of the uppermost part of the crescent, but otherwise the trim is perfect. The pen is fully restored and working well, and all the imprints are still clear and readable.
