FS: Cool vintage Fountain Pens
Hi All - I'm clearing out some of my collection. All pens are in
working order unless otherwise specified. The links are to photos. First e-mailer to clearly state they want a particular pen gets it. Paypal preferred, but I can accept U.S. money orders and checks (checks must clear before shipment). Shipping on any one item is $6.00 within the USA, and I can combine items to save on shipping. Have fun looking (and hopefully buying). Andy Rothman, . 1. Eversharp Executive Skyline pen and pencil set in original box. This is a true executive oversize model. Black barrels, grayish-green striped caps. Huge fine 14k Eversharp nib. The box is malformed somewhat. Also, the pencil is flattened on one side, as if some prior owner had sanded it down (but it works). However, the pen has no problems aside from a bit of brassing on the clip and lever (noticeable under a loupe). $250 http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...xecsklnnib.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...ecsklnset1.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...ecsklnset2.jpg 2. Scarce Moore Fingertip set, black, in original box with instructions/warranty document. The pencil still has the price sticker on it. The Fingertip, of course, is the space-age looking (for the 1940s, that is) pen Moore developed to compete with the Parker 51 (guess who won). A very high quality pen that is hard to find today, especially in the original box with instructions. Tiny spot of brassing on the pen's lever (almost imperceptible). Otherwise excellent condition on both pieces. Fine point Moore inlaid 14k nib with heart-shaped vent hole. $375 http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...tipboxset1.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...tipboxpncl.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...fgtipinstr.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...tipboxnib2.jpg 3. Another Moore Fingertip pen and pencil set, this one in dark green (no box or instructions with this one). The pencil still has its price sticker. Small brassed spot on the pen's cap band, Otherwise excellent condition on both pieces. Fine point Moore inlaid 14k nib with double vent holes (one heart-shaped). $300 http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...ipgreenset.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...ipgreennib.jpg 4. Yet another Moore Fingertip set (I know I said these were scarce and to list three sets makes it seem otherwise, but I've been collecting these over several years). This set is maroon, and the pen still has its original sticker. Excellent ++ condition, no brassing on either piece. Fine point 14k Moore inlaid nib with double vent holes (one heart-shaped). $325 http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...pmaroonset.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...pmaroonpen.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...pmaroonnib.jpg 5. Waterman's Emerald Ray Inkvue set, standard size, with the original extremely art deco presentation box. A gorgeous set, with the gold-filled "globe" end pieces intact, as well as a smooth gold-filled top piece to the pen. Pen and pencil are in extremely fine condition. The box is very good, with no tears but with some small writing in pencil on the lid and the inside. Waterman's 14k fine point "purple" (i.e., stiff) nib with "keyhole" shaped vent hole. $375 http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe..._inkvuebox.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...inkvuebox2.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe..._inkvuenib.jpg 6. Sheaffer blue/black 3-25 balance in very hard to find vest pocket size, with clip. Color is quite good (the photo is pretty accurate), with some even darkening. Trim in great shape as well. Overall condition is very fine. Fine point 3-25 Sheaffer 14k nib. $300 http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...pktbluebal.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~arothman/pe...tblubalnib.jpg |
