Product Description
Type Early mechanical pencil, working well.
Product Name This pencil matches the model 452 1/2 V fountain pens (slender, ladies ring top).
Manufacturer and Year Waterman, made in USA -- circa 1920s.
Length 3-3/4 inches, not including the ringtop hardware.
Filling System It takes 1.1mm (aka "Thick") leads, which it extends via the traditional twist mechanism (you twist the cone). We'll include a small pack of leads.
Color Sterling silver engraved with a Gothic pattern over black hard rubber.
Condition Excellent condition, with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a dainty, pretty, classic little mechanical pencil. There are a few scratches on the cone and the silver portion of that looks quite good. There are some scratches here and there. There are some dents and plating wear on the end piece that has the ring top. The imprint is clear.
Personalized with the initials "J S U" (The middle letter is an S, but we're guessing on the first and last letters. The engraving is in an elaborate Old English or Gothic font).
