This is a nice writing LeBoeuf desk pen. There is no base. Smooth
writer with a nice medium nib. It has nice color but there are 2 dark
bands on the pen, The discoloration looks far worst in the photos that it
appears when you have the pen in front of you. The photo lights really
exaggerate the dark spots on the pen. Again, please remember that there is
no base. |

Trupoint fountain pen that was made in the USA in the 1930s. Trupoint
was the lower line for Sears and Diamond Medal was their Premiere line.
This pen has very wild coloring. It was made in 2 layers of celluloid. The
outer layer is mostly transparent with some gold marbling and red streaks.
The layer underneath is a snakeskin or checkerboard pattern. This double
layering of the celluloid reminds me of the moon and stars pens, but their
outer layer was all transparent.

This is a great looking pen in near mint condition. The cap band has some
paint loss where it is enameled. It is a decent writer, but not a great
writer. Before I smoothed the nib, it wouldn't write at all, which is
probably the reason for the conidtion, it wouldn't write so it didn't get
used. |

Nice writing pen with a smooth nib. It is in very good condition, but it
does have those tiny cracks where the clip goes into the cap. With red
hard rubber pens, you almost have to expect some cracks. The black end cap
on the barrel is threaded in and you can unscrew it if you want to do so.

Moore oversize fountain pen that was made in the USA in the 1930s. You
would normally think that an oversize flattop pen was from the 1920s, but
Moore was always a little behind everyone else and this pen is probably
from around 1933. They called this color "Tiger-Eye" and it was not
introduced until 1930. Plus if you will look at the clip, it is a 1930s
clip that you usually find on the streamlined pens. There is a crack in
the cap. I would rather sell it this way. I do not believe in having
cracks repaired, "fixed", glued or "filled"
