Product Description
Type Vintage lever filling fountain pen, restored and working well.
Product Name This was originally one of the Gregg pens, as indicated by the emblem on the top of the cap, designed for stenographers using Gregg Shorthand. The original Gregg nib was missing when we got the pen, so we installed an Eversharp "Manifold" nib.
Manufacturer and Year Wahl Eversharp, made in USA -- 1920s.
Length 5-3/16 inches.
Filling System Lever filler. We've fully restored it with a new sac and it's working very well.
Color Red woodgrain colored hard rubber commonly called rosewood with gold plated trim, two thin cap bands near the lip, and one where the roller clip connects to the cap. The top of the cap is marked "Gregg" with their emblem.
Nib MANIFOLD MEDIUM Wahl Eversharp 14k #2 Manifold nib is fairly smooth with nice tipping material.
Condition Excellent condition. No cracks or chips, dings, dents, or personalization. The color has changed a bit over the years, with the blacks on the cap appearing slightly greenish, and the cap lighter than the barrel. There's some brassing on the edges and corners of trim, and a few small scratches on the cap and barrel. The Gregg marking on the cap shows some deterioration (see photos). The pen has been fully restored and is working very well.
