And even more rare ! - an Art Deco treasure
A superb examble of an early 1930s T.B.Ford pen - LADY MODEL
in excellent cosmetic condition, and with a restored filling system
(click on the images below for larger pictures)

Originally manufacturers of blotting paper, FORD pens,
with their unique filling system, were probably
made by WYVERN or The VALENTINE pen Company,
and were marketed by Fords throughout the 1930s.

They are hardly ever found for sale these days,
and certainly not in this superb condition.

Complete with its original MEDIUM flexible
FORD 428 MILL 14 carat Gold nib.
