The WAHL-EVERSHARP Company prototypes of the WAHL-EVERSHARP "100 Year" pens are finished.  The production runs are under way for release at Washington DC Show.  We're going with Cellulose and Gold metal.  All will have 18K solid gold nibs.  Here's a glimpse of the prototypes without the engraving on the cap lip band yet, and the Red Marble Pen is not ready yet either.  But we're working on it.

Beautiful pens, Syd.

 

My only suggestion would be to keep plated metal away from the gripping section.

 

regards

Wow!  Great looking pens, Syd.

I think they look great, especially the "Skyscraper" !! Personally I'd prefer a slip cap in this day and age (or a course1/2 turn metal thread like Sheaffer Snorkel ) for increased usability.
