Pen ID for this Swan Eye-dropper Fountain Pen

[Abhishek Gulshan]

Hey everyone, 

 

Greetings! 

 

Needed a bit of help on the model the year of make for this sleek small swan eye-dropper fountain pen that I bought off ebay recently. 

 

Any help / guidance on this would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thank you

Regards

Screw Cap dropper filled Swan. Generally called a Safety Screw Cap model.  Nice turned up nib.  Gold filled band on cap is a nice touch.

c1910-1920.

Sometimes there are numbers on the end of the barrel. Often C2.  

Please post the barrel imprint.

Thank you for the details there. I love the turned up nib and the barrel. All in all, looks quite nice! 

 

Yes so sorry about not taking the image of the barrel imprint. Had to leave town for 3 days so did it in a hurry. I'll do this as soon as i get home, on 5th night that is. 

 

Also, I wanted to ask about the turned up nib as well. Do you think it came like that or the previous user got it done? In either outcomes, what was the purpose? 

 

Thanks Greenie

That nib style was one of the available Swan nibs.  Looks like a normal variation seen on pens of that era.
