Product Description
Type Pump filling fountain pen
Product Name Name unknown. Not a Dreadnaught, as they had two-part caps. It might be a Camel, it seems to be the same length, but they are usually distinguished by a nib that says "Camel."
Manufacturer and Year Dunn, USA, 1921-7, these are the years the company was active but the casein handle is from later than the hard rubber one.
Length 5-9/16"
Filling System DUNN's famous pump system, restored here at PSP with a new cork seal.
Color Smooth black chased hard rubber (BCHR). It has a red casein pump handle and an Argus Manufacturing accommodation clip. It should have had a gold filled clip originally but at some point it got replaced with this clip. The clip slot can be found beneath the accommodation clip.
Nib Fine Flexible gold nib with a heart shaped breather hole. The nib is very flexible with great hairlines and strong line variation. Please see the writing sample below.
Condition Excellent + condition. The accommodation clip looks great and the chasing is fantastic. The one real mark against the pen is the casein pump handle. It is speckled with hairline fractures as is common with the casein pump handles. They do not affect writing or ink flow. The imprint is very clear. It has been personalized, "J.C.K." very lightly on the barrel, and the pen is working well.
