Vintage Fountain Pens & Pencils
This sale, originally due to be held on the 18th March, contains a fine and
broad collection of writing implements and ephemera.. A good collection of
Georgian and Victorian inkwells includes a beautiful Travelling Escritoire
in the form of a miniature trunk bound in leather containing a glass pounce
pot inkwell, taper holder and pens and pencils. This can be dated between
1816 and 1837 as the Royal Coat of Arms stamped on the case was only in use
during those years. The 'Golden Era' of writing in the 1920s and 30s is
extremely well-represented with several hundred pens including all the
famous names of day. More modern pens will be appearing at prices often
below their full retail value. Certainly the full colour catalogue is
essential for collectors or private buyers who may only need a solitary pen
for more formal occasions when a humble biro just won't do!
