COMMENTS: Waterman 52 pen set in black chased hard rubber and nickel trim. This pen set is comprised of the fountain pen, mechanical pencil, and presentation box. Fitted with a Canadian 14k Waterman Ideal #2 superflex nib that writes a medium to double broad line. Professionally adjusted nib, ultra smooth and capable of writing at any speed when not flexed. This pen set in mint condition. It appears like it has been sitting unused in a safe for almost a century. Perfect black hard rubber with full black luster. Perfect chasing. Perfect barrel imprints. Perfect threads. Ultra clean nickel trim. A couple of small pricks on the fat end of the barrel. Both barrels have been professionally engraved with the "Bryan Cooney" name. Finding pens that are about 100 years old in this condition is virtually impossible nowadays. The mechanical pencil uses the twist mechanism, it is fully operational and in mint condition as well. Presentation box is the hard-shell type with faux leather in burgundy color and a cream color liner inside the box. The presentation box is in near-mint condition as well. Lever filler. Has been fully serviced and a new rubber sac has been installed. The sac that came with it was decayed, but there were no signs of ink inside that pen, which leads me to believe it has perhaps not been used in its lifetime. Tested with water. Hence the reason there is not a writing sample. Made in Canada in the 1920s.

COMMENTS: Waterman 415 eyedropper pen with a sterling silver filigree overlay over smooth black rubber. Basket weave pattern. Clipped cap. The 415 model is a Waterman 15 with the sterling silver overlay. The 15 model is a significantly larger model than the more common 12 model. Longer, wider and with a much larger nib. Fitted with a 14k Waterman Ideal New York #5 superflex nib (borderline line a wet noodle) that writes a fine to triple broad line. Professionally adjusted nib, ultra smooth and capable of writing at any speed when not flexed. The sterling silver filigree has light dents at the end of the cap and some light scratches, tarnish and patina throughout its exterior. This is common in sterling silver pens as sterling silver is a softer material that is more prone to dents and scratching. However, it is still in very good condition, and much better than average for a pen that is 110+ years of age. No engraving or personalization on the indicia of the barrel. Great imprints on the cap and barrel. The black rubber is in great condition and has great coloring. Eyedropper filler. Serviced. Made in USA c.1910
