Product Description
Type Vintage pen which works beautifully. This version of the 52 was a ladies pen with a gold filled barrel and cap, checkerboard pattern.
Product Name Model 0552 1/2 V (gold filled cap and barrel, lever filler, slender)
Manufacturer and Year Waterman - circa 1920s
Length 3-5/8"
Filling System Lever filler (We have replaced the bladder and it works very well.)
Color Black smooth hard rubber fountain pen section, otherwise all gold filled. The barrel and cap are covered with smooth and shiny gold plating which has a checkerboard design.
Nib The nib is marked Manifold Waterman's Ideal. This is a firm nib.
Condition Excellent condition except for a very tiny ding on the cap (see photo). There's no ring or ring holder on the top of the cap, but the hole remains so there was one there to begin with. Some brassing and a small dent on the end of the barrel (see photo). This pen writes smoothly. The filling system is working well, and we'll guarantee it for a year.
