Product Description
Type Vintage fountain pen in working condition, lever filler. Screw-on style cap.
Product Name Waterman - 100 Year Emblem Pen. This is the smooth oversize version, very fat! Toward the end of its life, for legal reasons, they renamed the 100 Year Pen "Emblem."
Manufacturer and Year Waterman, USA, 1940s
Length Oversize 5-1/4"
Filling System Lever filler. We've replaced the bladder in the pen and the filling system works well.
Color Black, shiny. Gold plated trim.
Nib Huge gold Waterman Hundred Year Pen nib. Medium with nice every day flex, better than semi-flexible but not what we'd call full flex. See writing sample. Very smooth and nice to write with.
Condition Excellent condition with only light signs of use. There is some wear on the cap and barrel. No cracks or brassing on the trim. There was a personalization on the barrel which was removed when we acquired the pen, and we have tried to polish the area further, though traces of the name remain (see pic). Excellent imprint. It is ready to write.
