L.e. Waterman's Ideal Steps In The Process Of Manufacture Of Hard Rubber Parts

[lordofthenibs]

Hello Fountain Pen lovers,

 

Hope you are all having a good start to the year. Spring is near :-)

 

I'm new here so I hope I've added this to the correct forum.

 

Have any of you seen one of these before? If so, do you have an idea what year it is from?

 

Thanks!

Pretty cool. I'm not a Waterman expert. I'd say 1920's?

Very interesting. I have no idea of the date. Thanks for sharing.

This is fab! Despite knowing what parts were made from hard rubber, seeing the stages of manufacture like thar drives it home just how important rubber was in the pen industry.

@AAAndrew -- I think you're right since other materials were being used after the 20's.

 

@CS388 -- Glad you enjoyed!

 

@Inkysloth -- I totally agree! It's very cool to see the process from one of the greatest companies of the era.
