Swan identification request


Recommended Posts

Here is a small self-filling Swan with a flexible #2 nib.  I know little else about this pen and would appreciate any information (model, manufacture date, etc).

This would likely be from the 1920s.  Beautiful mottled hard rubber pen, and with a hard rubber lever, which is particular to Mabie Todd.  I believe, but could be mistaken, that the rubber lever models were all Swan SM (Swan Minor), and for a size 2, it is SM2.  There would be other numbers indicating the color, short length, and trim, but I can't come up with these off the top of my head.

It is a beautiful pen and that nib is vey promising pen. Seems to be a very fine medium flex nib.

It shows the shape and what quality it has in writing. Need to have more work get into life.
