I have only a little information on this pen. There is a 4 on the nib which I assume means it is a #4 nib.
I heard it was a sub brand of Wahl but had assumed it would have the Wahl name on it somewhere. I would be interested in more information on the Monitor pen line and the history on how it stemmed from Wahl.

Hi Ray,
Yes, Monitor is either a sub-brand or rebadged Wahl-Eversharp. Wahls have been rebadged for the Gregg and Palmer writing schools. Another Wahl sub-brand-- or was it a rebadge-- is Olympia.
The Monitors tend to have a low-end flavor, though I've seen some that appear to derive from some known Wahl-Oxfords. I'll have to dig up a few I have lying about for a photo shoot.
regards
david

Thanks! I have to do better shots of it and the others I received yesterday as well. All need some sort of minor or major repair. I just snapped that image with my cell phone as soon as I saw it. Interesting how some of the cheaper pens can be the most beautiful and decorative.
