P4	Parker $260	Parker 75 Grain D'Orge special edition Near mint Parker 75 in GF Grain D'Orge special edition. This one has a numbered section and a gold metal section ring with no lines. Near mint condition. Dish tassies. Nice wood box with no outer box.
P5	Parker $390 FP $110 BP $470 all	Parker 75 Écorce Fountain Pen and Ballpoint Pen This fountain pen and pencil have a striking pattern with nice depth. It was not originally a set (the date codes differ). I'll sell it singly or together. Both pens are in excellent condition, with the ballpoint pen closer to near-mint. The fountain pen has some brassing around the tassies on each end. The nib is a 14K USA #67, which is a broad. Metal section ring with hash marks; Dish tassies. I can offer other nibs, if you prefer.
P6	Parker $180	Parker 180 Écorce pattern. Parker 180 Écorce pattern in near-mint condition. The nib is a B/F, or a broad on one side and a fine on the other side. Nice writer and lovely collectible pen.
P7	Parker $290	Parker 75 Ecossais The gold-filled Parker 75 Ecossais and the Prince de Galles have very similar patterns. The former, shown on top in the photo below, has a narrow pattern that results in 11 sets on the cap from top to bottom, while the Prince de Galles, shown on the bottom of the photo, has a pattern that repeats 7 times on the cap. These are both French-made pens, but have the USA sections with silver metal numbered rings. It is very common to switch the sections rather than just the nibs, so this isn't unusual. I might be able to switch to French sections if it is important to a buyer. Metal section ring with hash marks; Dish tassies. The Ecossais is in excellent+ condition, with no flaws except a narrow rim of thinner plating around the barrel tassie edge. The nib is a 14K US nib #65 (fine). (The Prince de Galles, the bottom pen in the photoe, is sold).

Sheaffer

S1	Sheaffer $450	Sheaffer Jade Balance Oversize Lovely Jade oversized Sheaffer Balance. Color is outstanding, but not perfect in that the barrel is very slightly darker than the cap. No brassing. Sheaffer Lifetime fine nib. Exquisite pen!
S2	Sheaffer SOLD	Sheaffer Moire Skripsert SOLD One of the rarer Sheaffer Lady Skripserts in white moire. It is adorned with blue and white "brilliants". It has a smooth F nib. The photo shows the flaws - one spot of plating loss on the cap and a little plating loss on the barrel where it meets the section. Usually the ends are very worn on these, but not this one! Great for collections and for use.
S3	Sheaffer $160	Sheaffer Balance, Jade Circa 1929, somewhat rare one-year only humped long clip with ball, short section, F nib. The pen is 5 1/4" long capped. Overall nice color with some discoloration in the cap as shown in the photo.
S4	Sheaffer $150	Sheaffer Flattop Sheaffer Flattop in Jade, darkened rather seriously and has some brassing of the gold-filled trim. Has engraving "C.C. Nemechek, Humboldt, NE". The nib is what makes this pen worth the price - a large stiff fine. Comes with a very interesting story about how I got it.
S5	Sheaffer $190	Sheaffer Small Ringtop This pen is a GF Sheaffer Ringtop that is only 3.25" capped. Works well with a F nib, Sheaffer #2, that has a bit of tooth, but pleasant to use. "GM" is subtlely engraved in the indicia. Very clean pen otherwise, excellent plus to near mint. No brassing or wear to the Chevron pattern.

Swan /Mabie Todd

We2	Wahl $175	Wahl Art Deco metal pen From 1921 to 1929, Wahl made a number of uncommonly beautiful machine worked gold filled metal art deco pens. This pen is the #3 size, about 4 3/8" capped. It has a less-common linear pattern and a Wahl #3 fine flexible nib. It has a very thin line of brassing around the barrel end and initials professionally engraved in the indicea, otherwise no flaws.

Wa1	Waterman $590 set	Waterman 0552 Filigree set Goldfilled Filigree Set, excellent+, F flex nib. The only flaw I can find on this set is a spot of brassing on the edge of the barrel end of the pen and pencil. The pencil clip ball also has a spot of brassing. This is the less common large sized pencil. Gorgeous set!
Wa2	Waterman $590 set	Waterman Pansy Panel 0552 set The Pansy Panel Waterman is among the classic pens. This set has the rarer large pencil. The nib is smooth and relatively stiff with a meduim line. A bit of brassing on the edge of the cap and pencil, a spot on the pen clip ball, and a bit on the pencil cone, but the engraved part of the set is perfect!
Wa4	Waterman $1100 on hold-inquire	Waterman 554 Smooth Gold Lovely 14K solid rose gold Waterman 554 (fully hallmarked) lever fill with the smooth finish, no pattern. The pen has a name nicely inscribed on the indicia in small caps: Geo. Norton Pres. A.S.M.I. 1920 New Orleans 11.12.19 I was able to locate the following: Goerge H. Norton was President of ASMI (American Public Works Association) in 1920! This gorgeous and interesting pen has one small crease (less than 1/4" long, not even enough to be a scratch) and the BHR is little brown, particularly the section. Lovely flexible nib Waterman Ideal nib in a fine oblique (left foot)!
Wa5	Waterman $990	Waterman 554 Smooth Yellow/Green Gold Solid smooth yellow-green gold Waterman 554, fully hallmarked. The pen is a lever fill, with a Waterman Ideal fine (generous) firm nib. Indicia has lovely script engraving "Samuel Chalfin." The BHR is nice and black. The barrel end does have a small gouge visible in the photo. I see NO dents, dings, or scratches in the gold. Perfect and gorgeous.
Wa7	Waterman $225	Waterman 0552 1/2V Lovely GF Filigree Waterman ringtop, quite small (3.5" capped). The only flaw is a tiny rim of brassing around the cap top; the indicia is engraved (BTA in block letters); other than these, the pen is flawless. It has a flexible fine Waterman nib and is a nice writer.

O2	Maker Unknown $75	Small GF Pencil This sweet small (2 3/4") ringtop pencil is in excellent condition. Using a loup, I see a small ring of brassing around the end of the cone, but other than that it is in great condition. It propels lead by turning the large "knob" on the end. It does have some lead in it, but not much. Enough to know what you need to fill it again. I might have some lead for it.
O5	Maker Unknown $130	Pencil 14K engraved Victorian pencil This is a lovely Victorian pencil in 14K engraved with vines, about 2.5" long. It is working - the writing section extends when the knob is pulled out. See the second photo below. The inside tube is hallmarked 14K (#2 on second photo). Unfortunately, someone has taken a sample of the gold to test that, leaving the only flaw in the pencil (#1 on second photo). This is a very beautiful gold engraved piece!
O7	Hicks $90 SOLD	Hicks 14K pencil SOLD This nice pencil is very likely a Hicks pencil and it has the Hicks clip. It is hallmarked 14K and has a name (Cabell Finch) neatly inscribed in the indicia. The pencil is 3 7/8" long.
