Product Description
Type One-of-a-kind fountain pen made in Conway Stewart material and fitted with a new (but vintage) nib.
Product Name This is one of our prototypes, no name for the model.
Manufacturer and Year Peyton Street Pens, nib was made by Eversharp in the 1950s.
Length 5-13/16" with cap, 5-3/16" without cap. The pen posts deeply, and is 6-1/2" long when you do so. (Note that the posted cap fits loosely, so it may wiggle a bit while writing in this position.)
Filling System Button-filler. You unscrew the blind cap on the end of the barrel, put the nib in ink, and express the button a few times. Then wait a few seconds and remove the nib from the ink. (We will send instructions for how to use this filling system.) The button only needs a small amount of movement to completely compress the sac, but the button is easy to press down. DO NOT UNSCREW THE SECTION! This will damage the pen.
Color Conway Stewart Meteor material (black with red-orange chunks). The blind cap, section, and cap finial are alumilite, cast by Peyton Street Pens, in a nicely coordinating red-orange color. There is a fine silver rollstop installed on the cap, featuring a conch shell on a shield.
Nib MANIFOLD FINE. 14k 1950s Eversharp firm nib, the largest of the Symphony nibs from the Symphony 917 model. Brand new, never used except to set-up and test. See writing sample below.
Condition Perfect, brand new. It will be shipped in one of our Peyton Street Pens gift boxes.
