Product Description
Type Vintage mechanical pencil, working well
Product Name It isn't marked, but it is full length and slender. It probably matches a Waterman 52 1/2.
Manufacturer and Year Waterman, made in USA, 1920-30s -- Patent mark is "Pat. Appl'd For"
Length 5-1/4"
Filling System Takes 1.1mm (aka "thick") leads which it extends via the traditional twist mechanism (you twist the cone). The mechanism is only for extending leads, so to retract them you have to retract the pusher by twisting and then push the leads back in with your finger. We will include a small container extra leads.
Color Black faded to brown smooth hard rubber with a gold plated trim.
Condition Excellent condition with no cracks. This is a slim, shiny, classically designed pencil that works well. The brown smooth hard rubber has some light scratches that are difficult to see. The gold trim band just above the cone has light scratching and some small spots of plating wear along the edges. The gold band on the top of the cap has one deep scratch, some lighter scratch marks, and plating wear along some of the edges. The clip has plating wear along the top edge. The Waterman imprint is clear.
