As some of you may remember, I get to travel around the Southeast quite a bit for business. Today, while down in Alabama, I had some extra time on my hands and decided to check out the nearby antique store which I had visited before and had yielded no pens in the past. I'm glad I stopped in! Below are my two acquisitions of the day. A nice striped Duofold, and a Waterman 17.
The Waterman has the correct early #7 New York nib, but unfortunately said nib has a crack all the way down the middle.
It's hard to tell from the crappy pictures, but yes the bottom half of the Waterman is chased, so it's not a mismatch.
