Color Near perfect colored lapis (blue with white flecks) celluloid, with gold filled trim.
Nib FLEXIBLE FINE. Mabie Todd #2 nib gives very good line variation, and we consider it full flex. It goes from fine to broad or double broad with only very light, natural pressure, and it springs back nicely See writing sample. Excellent condition with plenty of tipping material.
Condition Excellent with no cracks, but one or two tiny nicks in the cap lip. Some light handwear and a few bite marks on the cap. The plating is good with some wear. There's an imprint or personalization on the barrel that reads KIRTLAND'S "BEST".....
