Conklin Mark Twain 2012 Crescent Filler Fountain Pen (Orange Fine)

Conklin created the Mark Twain 2012 Crescent Filler Fountain Pen as an exact replica of the original Crescent Filler fountain pen used and promoted by Mark Twain. You can experience the same satisfaction and inspiration that Twain felt as he penned his extraordinary thoughts. In 1903, the legendary American author expressed the virtues of this unique self-filling pen in advertisements where he stated, I prefer it to ten other fountain pens, because it carries its filler in its own stomach, and I cannot mislay even by art or intention. Also, I prefer it because it is a profanity saver; it cannot roll off the desk . The Crescent Filler is known for its easy-to-fill reservoir. To fill the pen, simply press the crescent on the barrel to empty the rubber bladder inside; ink flows back in as the crescent is released. Conklin fitted the Crescent with a two-tone steel nib featuring a corresponding crescent shaped breathing hole - now available with a stub point which is great for signatures! The Crescent Filler fountain pen is now available in captivating, fresh resin colors. Rich gold plating adds a bit of elegance to the clip and band engraved with the Conklin logo.
