Made in England, this black pen is in good condition. Although described by Mabie Todd as a 'Self Filling' pen, this "Swan" pen is in fact a conventional lever filling pen. The ink sac has been replaced. The barrel has a clear imprint, reading " "SWAN" SELF-FILLER MABIE,TOD0D & CO.LTD. MADE IN ENGLAND" and includes the stylised Swan trade mark. The cap has no cap band, and a short ball ended rhodium plated cap clip, stamped with the stylised Swan trade mark. The filler lever is also rhodium plated
The pen is fitted with a fairly stiff, but smooth writing, fine side of medium, "SWAN" nib. It is stamped " "SWAN" 2 14CT MABIE.TODD & CO.LTD. MADE IN ENGLAND". The section, the part holding the nib, is stamped "SWAN". The feed (under the nib) is stamped "SWAN.M.2".
