[QUOTE="Jonvintage85, post: 183703, member: 1622"]Hi everyone!! As some of you may know, I work with antiques and vintage items and I have recently took up the responsibility of the vintage fountain pens that come through. It's not too bad, and quite exciting. But there is one pen I have come across that has me stumped. I have heard a little whisper that it could potentially be an extremely early Mabie Todd (before they were Mabie Todd) but the internet has given me nothing. Black hard rubber with a very unusual half section. Plunger filler. The cap says 'The "JAP" No.2, made in Japan' and the barrel says 'WHS Self Filling Pen Patented'. It has 'WHS' on the 14ct gold nib Anyone here that has any ideas?
