Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Gorgeous Circa 1932 Wahl Eversharp Equipoised Gold Seal Deco band Fountain Pen in the uncommon Tunis celluloid fitted with a 14K Fine nib. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned, put back together, and is now in writing condition. 

NOTE: The pens of the Equipoised series ran from roughly 1929 to 1932 and the Tunis pattern/color is relatively uncommon. The Tunis Equipoise was not made in oversized length/girth like others. This pen being is the largest model (a full length pen) made in this color/pattern. Finding a Tunis Equipoise Fountain Pen with great color in great condition, like this one, are extremely difficult to acquire. The Tunis color is a pearlescent fuchsia with black veins and the color on this one pops!

I have ultrasonically cleaned the feed, section, and nib. Replaced the old rubber sac with a new, properly sized one. Hand polished the Gold Wahl Eversharp Roller Clip, Gold Filled 3-Ring Deco Banding, Gold Seal, and 14K Flexible NIB. I have also cleaned, buffed, and polished the barrel and cap to bring back the vibrancy and to protect the celluloid of the fountain pen. 

This fountain pen cap and barrel are in magnificent condition with no cracks or repairs with the cap always securing tightly to the barrel. The Tunis Celluloid with Gold Filled trim just looks absolutely stunning. The cap has the Gold Filled Clip with Roller Ball, 3-Ring Deco Cap Banding, and the Gold Seal Double Check Mark displaying a wonderful gold filled color. There is no wear to the gold filled trim on this pen and all of the trim has been polished to shine brightly again. The back of the cap is stamped with, "MADE IN U.S.A.". There are no monograms or personalizations to this fountain pen. This Wahl Equipoised Deco band Fountain Pen standard length (largest) model that measures 5 1/4" inches capped and 6 1/4" inches posted. 

The Lever Filling System works great. With the addition of a new rubber sac, the pen fills as it should. I have tested with water and operates as it was designed to.

This Wahl has the 14K Wahl-Eversharp Gold Seal Signature NIB. The Nib (iridium) has an extra-fine/fine point measuring roughly .43mm when measured with digital calipers. This nib will range from a fine to double broad stroke. The writing sample provided in the image has a fine stroke that measures .50mm with normal pressure and can flex to a double broad stroke of roughly 1.66mm with firm pressure. The nib point is close to being a "needlepoint" and writes like one would expect with such a point. The sample was done with the actual pen in the images that are listed for sale. The writing sample was used by dipping the NIB in Parker Quink Blue Ink. 

The Wahl Eversharp Equipoised Tunis Fountain Pen with Deco Banding is difficult pen to acquire. I would grade the Fountain Pen in Near Mint condition - it is in outstanding condition with no trim wear. Certainly, this Wahl Eversharp Deco Band Equipoised Fountain Pen is collector worthy with it being ready to write with or just add it to your writing arsenal collection.
