Product Description
Type Safety pen in near mint condition
Product Name 42 1/2 V (marked on the end of the barrel). (Note: on the writing sample we referred to this pen as a baby safety, but this technically is not the smallest safety pen, which is actually even smaller than this one.)
Manufacturer and Year Waterman USA - 1920s
Length 3-1/2" capped, 4-3/4" posted
Filling System Safety filler (we replaced the seals and thoroughly tested the pen, adn we will guarantee it to be free from leaks for a year from the date of purchase.)
Color Black chased hard rubber.
Nib Waterman Ideal flexible nib in fine. Full flex, but not a wet noodle. Good tipping material evident from both the top and the bottom. You get line variation from fine to broad ... see writing sample below.
Condition Superior condition, only barely lighter in color than the original. Very crisp chasing and imprints. No cracks or chips. No personalization. The nib is in superior condition. The nib extends and retracts as it should. The box is in good shape, just some stains on the inside and some wear on the outside.
