I went to the Texas Antique Weekend again and came away with a bunch of pen and pencils, here are some of the more interesting ones plus some random eBay and flea market finds. I also have a couple questions but they may need to go in different subforums.
1. Waterman Safety Pen
2. Dunn Pen - 5 1/2" capped
3. Sheaffer OS Balance
4. Parker Vacumatic
5. Conway Stewart 84 with a stub nib
6. Autopoint 52G - I usually dismiss autopoints as junk but this one is really nice
7. WASP FineLine Pencil - Brings my WASP/Vacuum-Fil collection up to 5 pens and 3 pencils, this is a pattern I haven't seen before though.
8. Very tiny sterling pencil made by Cross - All the other examples I have seen have been ringtops, I thought this one was pretty cool.
The questions I have are
1. The Waterman is not marked with a model number, does anyone know how to tell what it is? Also, the nib is bent and I can't figure out how to remove it to fix/replace it.
2. Where can I send the Dunn pen for restoration? It's a bit over my head. The clip needs to be adjusted, the filler needs to be restored and it needs some general body work.
3. I can't quite pin down what model the Vac is. It is 5 3/8" capped, 5" uncapped and 6 1/4" posted. It has a two-tone with a '1' date code but the body's date code is '.2.'. The filler is plastic, not a speedline and the blind-cap's coloration doesn't seem to match up with the body/cap so I'm wondering if it is a bit of a franken-pen.
