ca1929 Kaweco Sport. Perhaps the most enduring pen design of all time, since it has recently been revived by Visconti. This is the real deal, in black chased celluloid, with a piston filler and an alloy nib. This example, probably from the mid-1930s. These are neat pens. Like the later Japanese long cap pens, closed the pen is all of 3 7/8 inches long and can be carried anywhere, anyhow; but posted it is a full 5 3/4 inches. Neat . I took two of these to the Portland show and they were gone in a heartbeat. Here are two more. This one has a rather flexible medium nib. The piston got partially extended during the photo shoot, and the inkwindow looks short and dirty, but is not. OT988 |
