[WTS] Swan Mabie Todd Striped Ebonite with Chrome Trim and a Fantastic Full Flex 14C gold nib (EF to 1.62mm)
Sold
£299
A beautiful example of vintage Swan Mabie Todd with a dreamy full flex nib.
The pen is made of ebonite and it has got a very beautiful striped pattern on the body and the cap. The silver trim is brassing free and shiny. Excellent condition over all. Rating [B]
This nib is special. This 14C gold nib is surprisingly very smooth for an EF nib. It flexes easily upto 1.66 mm. The nib is soft and has got a fantastic elasticity which is a must have when you're looking for a good flex nib.
Please see the writing sample video (keep the audio on for the ambiance 😂) and photos here:
The pen has been recently serviced, new ink sac installed and in perfect working order.
If you were ever looking for a classic proper vintage flex, then this is it.

Note: I am a medical doctor by profession with a full-time day job. I do this purely out of passion for fountain pens, specially vintage flex pens. I can safely say that I understand flex nibs and have owned a lot of them over the years. If you have been looking for a vintage pen with a flex nib, please drop me a text. If it is not this one, I might be able to find the right pen at the right price for you. Many thanks.
