NOTE THESE POINTS: I've attempted to show the flex, but keep in mind that this depends on how hard the writer presses. I do NOT press hard, so those shown are quite flexible based on just a little pressure. Sorry that I didn't have better quality graph paper! Graph paper is 5 squares/inch.

Conklin Crescent smooth GF, #3
Full-sized smooth gold-filled crescent filler, unusual to find in this condition. Almost no flaws in the surface of the pen. Beautiful and in working condition. The fine 14K #3 nib is flexible.

Conklin Crescent #2 set
Conklin crescent lined set with #2 Conklin nib in excellent plus condition. I see no brassing and no dents, a really nice set!

Conklin Crescent GF Overlay Vines and Flowers
This is a wonderful Conklin Crescent with an engraved GF overlay of vines and flowers in the #3 size. Conklin Toledo nib in fine is probably a later replacement, which is common. This is an older crescent with threaded cap. The indicia is on the cap, and says "Carabelle 1916" which places the date of the pen! No brassing or dings. There are a few light scratches and a tiny gouge in the edge of the metal barrel where the section slips in. Amazing to find a pen this old in this condition!

Conklin Crescent Chevrons no longer available
Perfect Conklin crescent with chevrons pattern and a slip cap, making it an early pen. This pen has a #2 conklin nib in fine, with a bit of flex but not a lot. The pen is pristine, excellent plus with no flaws at all.

Conklin Crescent Stars and Stripes
Conklin Crescent rare stars and stripes pattern and a #2 Toledo nib with a bit of flex. I see no flaws on this pen, just beautiful! It has light but decorative engraving on the indicia - but not in characters I can read!

Conklin Red Hard Rubber Endura with Long Cap
Beautiful, rare, and perfect! Lever fill. Huge Conklin Toledo nib in fine.

Two uncommon slip cap Conklins: #316 straight cap and #5 filigree
The #316 Conklin crescent is SOLD
Thye #5 gold-filled slip cap filigree with the three leaves pattern is also gorgeous! Has the #5 Conklin nib in semi-flex. Under magnification I can see a tiny line of brassing on the edge of the filigree next to the section, but this is an uncommonly clean pen. No engraving on the indicia.

$490(artdeco) $560(figure8)

Two clipless Conklin Crescents
The top pen is the Conklin crescent in the art deco pattern in the #2 size, with a #2 Conklin nib in medium (on the fine side of medium). Beautiful rare pattern; I only see one flaw and that is a tiny rim of brassing around the end of the cap. The indicia on the cap is engraved "Major J.P. Byrom."
The bottom pen in the photo is a large figure eight design filigree in the #3 size. Excellent plus condition. I see a tiny rim of brassing around the top of the cap and a small crease in the cap dome. This pen is not engraved. I would call the nib XF and very flexible.

Two #3 Conklin Filigree pens
Two marvelous Conklin crescents in #3 size with #3 Conklin nibs. These are the four leaf clover (top) and large figure 8 (not sure what Conklin called this one). Both are excellent plus with no flaws at all. The four leaf clover pen no engraving on the cap indicia, and has a fine flexible nib. The figure 8 has lovely script initials (EVB) on the cap indicia, and has a XF semiflex nib

Nozac Faceted Black 5M
This black Nozac is in excellent condition. The shiny deep black reflected from the facets and might not look black in the photo, but it is absolutely black. The only flaw I see is a bit of brassing on the clip. The transparency area of the barrel is a bit ambered, but very transparent. Fully restored piston filler with a Conklin Toledo nib in 14k fine.

Conklin Endura Desk Pen
Conklin Endura desk pen in shades of tan, gold, and brown. The barrel is a bit darker just above the section (see photo). The nib is a Conklin Endura 14K in a medium and has a little flex. The BHR feed shows some fading to brown, but works fine. No brassing.
