COMMENTS: A.A. Waterman fountain pen made of black chased hard rubber. Very wide ornate cap band. Indicia in this gold band has not been personalized. Slip-on and clipless cap (from the factory). The A.A. Waterman Company and the L.E. Waterman Pen Company were two completely different companies, both of them located in New York. Confusion in between those "Waterman" pens the early 20th century lead to their very infamous lawsuit, which resulted in the AA Waterman pens having to add a disclaimer on their products that they were not connected to the LE Waterman Pen Company. This pen was made somewhere in the later part of the decade of the 1900s and before the lawsuit took place. AA Waterman are very high quality pens, although produced in much smaller quantities than LE Waterman pens. Fitted with a 14K A.A. Waterman New York #4 superflex nib that writes a medium to double broad line. Smooth nib, capable of writing at any speed when not flexed. Wet writer. This is an oversized pen, measuring 5 15/16" long (capped) and 6 13/16" long (posted), making it a very long pen for vintage standards. In terms of diameter, it has a standard sized diameter for vintage standards, the equivalent of a Waterman 52 pen. Awesome exterior color with near mint condition chasing. If it were not for a couple of very smalls scuffs in the knob in the barrel, this pen would be graded as in near mint condition. Perfect barrel imprints. Wide gold band is extremely elegant, is the focal point of this pen, and is also in near mint condition. Twist filler mechanism. Serviced and fully operational. Presentation box is made of cardboard. It is included with the pen and it is in fairly good condition. Made in USA in the second part of the decade of the 1900s.
