Product Name Model 28 Libertas Diamondline
Manufacturer and Year Franklin-Christoph Pen Company, USA -- current model.
Length 5-7/8" long.
Filling System Cartridge/converter, international style. A converter is installed.
Color Rhodium-plated - very shiny silver color, with lengthwise lines on both cap and barrel, with engraved diamond detailing.
Nib Broad JoWo #5 steel nib has a stub grind on it (stubs are similar to cursive italic, with thick vertical lines and thin horiizontals, but without the sharp edges of a CI) and is very smooth. We don't have any information on who did the nib work.
Condition Excellent condition. The pen has several areas where the plating is flaking, especially at the top of the cap and on the band; we've highlighted these in the pictures. There are only small spots of brassing, which are obvious in the pictures, though difficult to see in the hand. There is also microscratching and light handwear all over.
