Great pen and near mint. I removed the old bladder, but I did not install
a new one. A pen like this should not be inked and used, it is too
important to keep it unused. I found something interesting when I pulled
the section out. The original bladder was not seated properly on the
section. The pen would not draw ink, even when it was new and that is the
reason it is still unused. The Wasp nibs were usually not marked as to
gold content. I did test one one day and it turned out to be 18K gold.
Someone else had told me that they are usually 9K gold. Either way, it is
a fine example of a Wasp pen. Please don't email me and ask me to install
a bladder in it, I won't do it. |

A beautiful Sheaffer in a rare color. It is a good writer, but not
a great one. The 5-30 nib is proper for a non-lifetime model like this
one. The barrel is slightly darker than the cap and the end of the cap and
the end of the barrel and a tiny bit lighter than the rest of the pen.
These are all typical traits of the balance pens. Overall the color is
still stunning. |
