Product Description
Type Early fountain pen
Product Name Unknown, these pens are generally identified by maker and nib size, but the nib size is hidden in the section.
Manufacturer and Year The Moore Pen Co., Boston, Mass., USA -- 1920s
Length 4-11/16" This pen is quite slender for the length.
Filling System Lever filler, restored with a new sac. We will guarantee the filling system for a year from the date of purchase.
Color Black hard rubber pen with a gold filled overlay. The overlay spans the entire cap and most of the barrel. It has a checkerboard pattern.
Nib Fine flexible nib labeled, "The Moore Pen." It has nice tipping and offers line variation from fine to broad. Please see the writing sample below.
Condition Very nice condition. There is some brassing and wear on the end of the pen, and moderate scratching. The part of the overlay nearest the nib has scratching and brassing, and some light corrosion. The section is slightly crooked or askew - it's just a tiny bit off, slightly bent downward. There are some tooth marks near the top of the cap. There are (empty) holes in the cap where a clip used to be. The patterning looks great and the imprints are easily read. No personalization.
