Filling System Fountain pen is a lever filler. We've restored with a new sac, and it's working very well. Pencil takes 1.1mm leads, and has a space in the top part of the body to hold extra leads.
Color Lovely blue and cream celluloid, though on the pen most of the cream areas have aged into a light orange color. The trim is chrome plated.
Nib FINE Waterman's Ideal #2 semi-flex nib, made in Canada. It's smooth and springy, with subtle line variation. Pencil takes 1.1mm leads, which are extended by holding the front end and twisting the body from just above. The extra leads are accessed by unscrewing the top portion of the "cap" section; the seam there is easily seen.
Condition Excellent condition. Fountain pen: light handwear, but no large individual marks. No cracks or chips. The cap ring is excellent, but the clip has some brassing. Lever and lever box looks great. The imprints are slightly smoothed out, but still quite readable. Pencil is in similar condition as the pen. The top of the pencil does have some marks. The clip is firmly in place. Both clip and trim ring have brassing.
