| 9987 | Aikin Lambert | eyedropper-filler | black hard rubber slip-cap with lattice-like floral gold filled overlay in relief; 13.3 cm long, unusual but characteristically Aikin #1 nib with round vent hole behind but not connected to the slit, ribbed section; barrel engraved "A/AND/C", metal very clean with no brassing, only a few shallow flat spots on cap crown, hard rubber nice and dark | c. 1910 | extra-fine flex | exc | $675 |

| 14487 | Aikin Lambert | Capitol Cabinet | black chased hard rubber lever-filler, 13.5 cm long, gold filled trim, crisp and glossy, bold imprints, largely identical to a Waterman 52 (Aikin Lambert was a Waterman subsidiary at this time).

| 13943 | Aikin Lambert | Mercantile | unusual red hard rubber lever-filler, 14.05 cm long, gold filled trim, with a #2 Aikin Lambert nib, but the pen itself is the size of a Waterman 55 and was likely made using Waterman reject parts (both cap and barrel have tiny black specks and surface pits); name on barrel, condition otherwise factory new, came to us clearly never filled | c. 1927 | extra-fine flex | mint | $450 |
| 14485 | Aikin Lambert | Mercantile | jade green lever-filler, 14 cm long, gold filled trim, crisp imprints, no brassing, largely identical to a Waterman 52, but in celluloid rather than hard rubber (Aikin Lambert was a Waterman subsidiary at this time).

| 14571 | Camel | button-filler | black, 12.9 cm long, gold filled cap bands, gold plated clip; a late production version without the ink-pellet feature, but retaining the distinctive and appealing logo of two camels filling a pen between them, appearing on both barrel and nib imprints. Plating thin on the clip, otherwise excellent | c. 1939 | fine flex | fine-exc | $225 |
| 12754 | Carey | eyedropper-filler in box | black hard rubber straight-cap, gold filled chased pattern overlay, 13.5 cm long, nearly identical to a contemporary Aikin Lambert, narrow feed, #2 Carey nib has been retipped, is extremely soft and should be used with a light touch; "Cecilia" engraved on barrel cartouche, cap crown disk bumped askew from dings to cap top bead (see detail); fancy box is clean with full Carey markings on the interior | c. 1910 | fine stub flex | VG-fine | $895 |

An early pen of excellent quality, from a company closely tied to Parker | c. 1898 | fine stub flex | VG-fine* | $250 |
| 11527 | Century | eyedropper-filler | slender black hard rubber slip-cap with full gold filled overlay, 13.5 cm long, over and under feed; despite Century's close ties to Parker, this pen most closely resembles a Waterman of the era -- the overlay likely coming from a common source, Heath. Sound overall condition, noting trace plating wear to high edges and more severe wear to the barrel's posting end (see details) | c. 1905 | fine flex | G-VG | $650 |
| 7628 | Chilton | pneumatic-filler | black hard rubber ringtop, 11.6 cm long, gold filled trim with fancy triple banding at top of cap; barrel imprint worn but legible, replacement warranted nib; no brassing, typical chipping to edge of barrel end plug (see detail) | c. 1925 | extra-fine semiflex | G-VG* | $150 |

| 9875 | Chilton | pneumatic-filler | mottled hard rubber ringtop, 11.4 cm long, gold filled trim, excellent color, sharp imprints, responsive Chilton nib has the beginnings of a hairline from the vent hole and a tight hairline emerging from under the section | c. 1926 | fine flex | fine-exc* | $225 |
| 9848 | Chilton | pneumatic-filler | black chased hard rubber ringtop, 11.4 cm long, gold filled trim, moderate fading, imprint light but fully legible, smooth and responsive Chilton nib has the beginnings of a hairline from the vent hole, but should cause no problems unless used with a heavy hand | c. 1926 | fine flex | fine* | $165 |
| 9839 | Chilton | Golden Quill | black pneumatic filler, 13.9 cm long, gold filled trim, section with ink window; rare late minimalist design, elegantly understated detailing on clip, crest, and applied cap escutcheon.

| 14032 | Conklin | 2 | extremely early crescent-filler in mottled hard rubber, 13.7 cm long, good clean cap imprint with 1891 and 1901 patent dates, short-lived design with flat ends and trim grooves on both barrel and cap seen only at beginning of production, this example predates the mid-1902 adoption of lock ring of graduated thickness (US patent 745,481). An important Conklin rarity, only a handful of surviving examples known | c. 1901 | extra-fine flex | VG | $1600 |
| 9415 | Conklin | 10 Special | black hard rubber #1-size slip-cap crescent-filler, 12.9 cm long, nickel plated trim, imprints clear and strong; a rare and elusive model, to our knowledge not documented in any surviving catalog or advertisement -- many Conklin collectors are not even aware that Conklin made a #1-size pen | c. 1905 | medium italic flex | fine | $450 |
| 9635 | Conklin | 2 | black hard rubber slip-cap crescent-filler, gold filled trefoil filigree overlay, 12.8 cm long; very clean early pen, narrow feed, teardrop vent hole in nib, unmarked crescent; only significant flaws are tool marks on the crescent and a crack in the hard rubber at the very top of the cap -- otherwise near mint | c. 1906 | extra-fine semiflex | fine-exc* | $520 |
| 12240 | Conklin | S3 | mottled hard rubber slip-cap crescent-filler, 13.4 cm long, nickel plated trim; narrow "keel" feed, #3 Conklin nib is toothy, like a steel dip pen, crack from vent hole should be stable if not flexed; even wear, imprints worn but present | c. 1908 | extra-fine flex | VG* | $450 |
| 13510 | Conklin | 3 | black hard rubber slip-cap crescent-filler with gold filled trefoil filigree overlay, 13.3 cm long, notable easy-opening #3 nib with narrow feed, engraved monogram in cap cartouche, shallow bumps to cap crown, overlay otherwise nice and clean | c. 1912 | extra-fine flex | fine | $850 |
| 14015 | Conklin | S8 | rare oversize black chased hard rubber slip-cap crescent-filler, gold filled trim, 15.1 cm long, noteworthy #8 nib is a smooth flex italic; minimal wear to barrel, cap is as new and appears to be a near-perfect reproduction made by Lynn Sorgatz several years ago, using original material with an original chasing machine (since destroyed in a fire) | c. 1912 | medium broad italic flex | exc* | $895 |
| 11379 | Conklin | 2 | black hard rubber screw-cap crescent-filler with sinuous Art Nouveau gold filled filigree overlay, 12.9 cm long; early "PAT.

End of lock ring broken off, but enough remains to secure crescent | c. 1916 | medium fine flex | VG* | $575 |
| 12443 | Conklin | 75 | oversize black chased hard rubber crescent-filler, 14.25 cm long, gold filled trim, big #7 nib is a responsive writer; more wear to the barrel than to the cap, nice sound example of the largest model of crescent-filler Conklin ever offered | c. 1920 | medium fine flex | fine | $895 |
| 14136 | Conklin | 75 | oversize black chased hard rubber crescent-filler, 14.5 cm long, gold filled trim, #7 nib, sharp chevron pattern chasing, strong imprints, hard rubber black and glossy, no brassing to trim; near mint but for a tiny chunk from the front edge of the crescent opening (see detail).

| 12221 | Conklin | Nozac | rare black-veined green marbled piston-filler, 13.6 cm long, gold filled trim, unusual top-mounted clip, barrel marked "PAT. PENDING", otherwise no maker's marks, name on barrel. We have only seen a handful of these pens, which Conklin experts believe to predate the formal introduction of the Nozac line | c. 1930 | medium fine | fine | $500 |
| 10946 | Conklin | Nozac | rare vest pocket size piston-filler, 11.4 cm long, black with gold filled trim, original price sticker, perfect barrel transparency with herringbone pattern; mechanism in excellent working order, original piston seal has not been replaced and is probably not ink tight | c. 1932 | extra-fine flex | mint* | $595 |
| 14241 | Conklin | Endura Symetrik | black-veined green "Foliage Pearl" lever-filler, rare vest pocket size, 11.2 cm long, gold filled trim, outstanding color and depth of pearlescence.

| 13736 | Eagle | combination | black chased hard rubber eyedropper-filler, 15.7 cm long, nickel plated trim, pencil end uses standard 2mm drafting lead; introduced no later than 1911, this appears to have been the first mass-produced pen-pencil combo. Good sound example of later production with clip, moderate fading, imprints and chasing all good, notably precise and responsively calligraphic nib | c. 1920 | fine stub semiflex | fine | $275 |
| 12956 | Edward Todd | lever-filler | oversize all-metal 16K gold filled, 13.2 cm long, grouped parallel lines pattern; initials in barrel cartouche, damaged original #6 Edward Todd nib included, has been replaced with a contemporary warranted #6 nib of excellent quality. An Edward Todd this large is most unusual | c. 1928 | needlepoint | exc* | $450 |

| 11879 | Eversharp | Skyline Demi | rare early production slender burgundy lever-filler with striped cap, gold filled trim, section with transparent ink window, standard short-model length at 12.2 cm long, but markedly slimmer (10 mm OD over barrel threads) -- parts do not interchange with any standard production pen; well worn but mechanically sound, gouges to barrel, lever sits slightly loosely at rest. To date we have found only a handful of examples of this slender model (Demis are normally shorter than standard Skylines but of the same thickness) | c. 1941 | extra-fine rigid | VG | $225 |
| 12582 | Eversharp | Skyline | dark burgundy lever-filler, 13.35 cm long, gold filled trim, doubly rare with ribbed sterling silver cap -- the rarest of all Skyline caps -- and Wahl markings instead of Eversharp (nib, top ring, and clip, with "W" logo in place of double check mark). It has been suggested that a small number of Skylines were so marked in order to maintain trademark protection for the Wahl name, but this is still speculation -- though the rarity of these pens is well-known | c. 1942 | medium fine flex | fine | $675 |
| 11347 | Eversharp | Skyline | black full-length lever-filler, 13.2 cm long, gold filled trim, uncommon configuration with ribbed plastic cap; name on barrel | c. 1943 | medium fine flex | fine-exc | $145 |

| 14210 | Eversharp | Gregg in box | unusual black lever-filler, 13.25 cm long, gold filled trim, made for resale by the Gregg shorthand company, bearing an enameled Gregg logo in the cap top and carrying a special Gregg-marked nib over a Skyline-style feed. Wahl-Eversharp made Gregg and Palmer Method pens from the 1920s on, but postwar examples are uncommon. With instructions and insert, some damage to box top. Original sac is still soft and has not been replaced | c. 1955 | extra-fine | mint | $225 |
| 13661 | Eversharp | Gregg in box | unusual black lever-filler, 13.35 cm long, gold filled trim, made for resale by the Gregg shorthand company and bearing an enameled Gregg logo in the cap top, and carrying a special Gregg-marked nib over a Skyline-style feed. Wahl-Eversharp made Gregg and Palmer Method pens from the 1920s on, but postwar examples are particularly uncommon, and this is the first example we have had with the original box and instructions | c. 1955 | extra-fine | exc | $225 |
| 14153 | LeBoeuf | sleeve-filler | black and pearl ringtop, 11.7 cm long, black ends, gold filled trim, barrel end unscrews, can accommodate a taper to convert to a desk pen (not included); #4 size, with a notable sharp-edged but smooth-writing factory italic nib. Some plating wear to lowest cap band, factory crimp marks on all three bands (typical for LeBoeuf, for some reason), pressure bar is a modern replacement, excellent function and appearance | c. 1932 | medium fine italic | fine* | $175 |
| 11132 | Mabie Todd | Swan | hard rubber straight-cap eyedropper-filler with extremely rare Fleur-de-lys pattern gold filled high relief overlay; 13.5 cm long, full Mabie Todd & Bard imprint on barrel with 1880s patent dates, classic over and under feed with twisted silver wire "tail". Initial on cap, name on barrel, only a handful of examples of this design are currently known, with a silver specimen selling for over $11,000 on eBay in November 2013£6,750 for silver on eBay UK Nov 2013 to Graham Jasper, Silvert underbidding | c. 1905 | medium stub flex | VG-fine | $4500 |
| 11272 | Mabie Todd | Swan | black hard rubber eyedropper-filler with solid 18K gold barleycorn pattern overlay, 13.5 cm long, tool marks on posting end and on section overlay (see details), but pattern and imprints all sharp and clean. #2 New York nib is sharp-cut, with classic over and under feed with twisted silver wire feed tail | c. 1905 | fine italic flex | fine* | $1250 |
| 12065 | Mabie Todd | Swan Safety | unusual clipless vest-pocket screw-cap black chased hard rubber eyedropper-filler, 8.75 cm long, New York production, unusual chasing, Eberstein patent dates on cap and barrel | c. 1910 | extra-fine firm | fine-exc | $145 |
| 12717 | Mabie Todd | Swan in box | black hard rubber eyedropper-filler with full heavy 18K solid gold overlay, checkerboard pattern engine turning, 13.1 cm long, in extra-fancy original box with instructions, dropper still below pad, though bulb is hardened and broken. Pen is US-made, for the English market, slip-on clip is added and appears to be solid gold as well, total pen weight is 21g. Metal is undinged and with full London hallmarks, excellent but for what appears to be a polished-out inscription on the barrel | c. 1920 | fine stub semiflex | fine* | $1100 |
| 11940 | Mabie Todd | Swan set in box | black hard rubber lever-filler with engine turned gold filled overlay, 13.2 cm long, New York production, with matching Fyne Poynt pencil; both would be near mint, but the pencil has a couple of scratches and bumps to the eraser cover and the pen has the typical corrosion damage to the section overlay (see details). Still a very handsome set, top quality construction and weight, pencil uses 1.1 mm lead, pen is a smooth writer | c. 1926 | medium fine semiflex | fine-exc* | $450 |
| 10205 | Mabie Todd | Swan set in box | beautiful and solid New York-made lever-filler in 1/5 18K gold filled, 13.1 cm long, crisp rings chasing pattern (usually found on Edward Todd pens, but very uncommon for Mabie Todd). Matching 1.1 mm Fyne Poynt pencil, both pieces bear a neatly engraved 1928-dated inscription on their barrels. Nib is set tight, so writes a very fine line, but the tip is large enough that it could be adjusted to a medium fine if opened up. Set is like new with attractive age toning, no brassing but usual Mabie Todd seam lines visible where end caps soldered on pen | c. 1928 | extra-fine semiflex | near mint | $685 |
| 14588 | Mabie Todd | Swan Eternal 46 set | oversize semistreamlined black lever-filler with inlaid jade celluloid trim band, 14 cm long, gold filled trim, huge #6 Eternal nib; matching 1.1 mm pencil shows rather more usage, with scratches to the barrel.

| 13425 | Moore | Non-Leakable | black hard rubber retracting-nib safety with smooth gold filled overlay, 12.1 cm long, Moore #2 nib; one shallow ding and some pinprick marks to the cap, small patch of corrosion at front of barrel overlay (see details), safety post inside cap is absent | c. 1920 | fine stub flex | VG-fine | $650 |
| 14472 | Parker | Silver Dollar | very rare economy sub-brand black hard rubber eyedropper-filler, 14.6 cm long, stepped section, distinctive early feed, original ventless nib marked only "14K". Barrel imprint very light, barrel slightly out of round from what appears to have been the removal of a name. Cap is an accurate reproduction in original material | c. 1897 | medium fine flex | G* | $465 |
| 13373 | Parker | 24 New Style | an extremely rare slip-cap eyedropper-filler design, offered for only a very brief time (mentioned in Parker's Side Talks in 1899, absent from 1898 and 1900 Parker catalogs); mottled hard rubber, correct black hard rubber section, 14.45 cm long, #4 keyhole vent Lucky Curve nib, intact early narrow Lucky Curve feed, barrel imprint worn at ends but almost all legible.

Surface of barrel shallowly rippled, a production quality control issue seen before on Parkers of this era, imprints strong, color excellent. With instructions and original dropper (bulb hardened), box top shows medals from St. Louis and New Orleans expositions of 1904, though pen appears to have been made a bit earlier | c. 1900 | extra-fine | fine-exc* | $395 |
| 9247 | Parker | 30 | black hard rubber eyedropper-filler, 13.7 cm long, gold filled overlay with scrollwork and diamond pattern, one of Parker's most expensive gold filled pens at the time, catalogued at $10.
