Product Description
Type Vintage vacumatic filling fountain pen.
Product Name Doric I, we are calling it a "I" because the first version came in different colors and used a different cap band than later versions.
Manufacturer and Year Wahl Eversharp, USA -- 1931-35.
Length 5-3/4", oversize.
Filling System Lever filler. A new sac has been installed and tested. The pen is working well and we will guarantee the filling system for a year from the date of purchase.
Color This pen is "Morocco Pearl," a marbled burgundy material with gold plated trim. The trim includes a roller clip, the Eversharp Gold Seal, and a 1/4" wide cap band with diamond and rectangle cut outs. The pen is faceted.
Nib Semi-flexible Wahl Eversharp 14k Gold Seal Signature nib. It puts down a medium line that can flex to broad. The underside of the feed is marked with an M. Please see our writing sample below.
Condition Excellent condition. The very top of the cap is beginning to change color which is the first sign of crystallizing, but the material looks solid and the rest of the cap looks good, with no cracks or major scratches. The Gold Seal is intact. The clip and cap band both have brassing and plating wear. The cap imprint is mostly legible. The end of the barrel also has a bit of crystallization starting. There is light handwear and scratching, but the pen looks overall quite nice in hand.
