20 Vintage Waterman Pens, Mostly With Flex Nibs

[Mauricio]

Here are 20 vintage Waterman pens. Most of them are in the "Ideal" series and have flexible nibs, and . There are model 7, 5, 56, 55, 54, 52, 14PSF, 32, Lady Patrician in Turqusoise, etc. Prices start at $100 for a user grade pen with a good flex nib and go all the way to the very rare wet noodle nibs and/or highly collectable models. All pens have been restored and have smooth nibs.

 

I have started adding information on some nibs that have tremendous flexibility, but at the same time, they have very smooth nibs, capable of writing like a regular non-flex nib when no pressure is applied. These nibs will allow to write as fast as you can ... and simultaneously allow you to enjoy the wonderful world of flexy writing if you slow down and start apllying pressure on the down strokes. These nibs are not common among flexy nibs. It's like having two nibs in one. Now, how cool is that?

 

Please also notice that I have started offering some superflex and wet noodle nibs that have very thin nib widths, XF and XXF. Some of these nibs are not your regular daily user nibs, meaning they require the proper skills to handle such soft and thin nibs. If you do not have those skills, they will seem to be scratchy and very hard to control, but in reality they are not scratchy. They need a highly skilled user, and I am not one myself. Those writing samples will not do justice to the capabilities of those nibs ... because I do not want to take chances and damage one of those very rare nibs.

 

Finally, I will be attending the Jonesboro (Arkansas) Pen Show and will be on the road most of the day. I will have no access to the internet or emails most of the day tomorrow, Saturday, October 30

Now the fun part ...
