Product Description
Type Lever filling fountain pen, restored and working well.
Product Name Corinth. In 1945, Waterman introduced their Taperlite line with a semi-hooded nib as a response to the Parker 51. At the same time, they had a "Standard" model with an open nib for customers with more traditional tastes. A few years later, they updated these pens with a gold cap and called them Corinth, which is what we have here.
Manufacturer and Year Waterman, made in USA -- 1950-51.
Length 5-5/16"
Filling System Lever filler. We've restored it with a new sac and it's working very well.
Color Black barrel with a gold plated cap and gold plated trim.
Nib RIGID Waterman's Ideal 14k open nib is smooth with nice tipping. The nib is between a medium and a fine.
Condition Very nice condition. No major scratches, chips, or personalization. The cap has microscratching and two small dents. There's some microscratching on the barrel, but the imprint is clear and readable. The sides of the clip are slightly worn, but overall it's in pretty good shape. The pen has been restored and it's working very well.
