COMMENTS: Waterman 55V fountain pen in Red Ripple hard rubber and gold trim. This is a very uncommon model as very few of these shorter version of the Waterman 55 pens were produced. This pen is a full sized pen, measuring almost 5" long (capped) and 6 1/2" long (posted), but also an oversized pen for vintage standards when posted or in terms of girth (diameter), using a large nib. Fitted with a 14k Waterman Ideal #5 medium flex nib that writes a fine to double broad line. Professionally adjusted nib, ultra smooth, and capable of writing at any speed when not flexed. The red rippple color is in fantastic condition. Great barrel imprints. No model code available on the flat end of the barrel. Nickel lever box appears to be the incorrect one as it does not have the Waterman globe on it. At the moment, the pen is missing its clip. I have a correct one and plan to have it installed by May 1. Will update the picture of the pen by then to show the correct clip being installed into it. Will only be able to ship this pen after the clip is installed. Lever filler mechanism. New sac. Made in USA in the 1920's.
