Waterman is one of the oldest pen companies in business - sort of.
The original L.E.Waterman Company began in 1884. They did very well for years, producing many of the world's
finest pens. They gave up manufacturing in America in 1958. Since that time, Waterman pens have been made by
what had been their French subsidiary, which survives to this day.

Waterman Pen and Pencil Set - Red Nib
|
This set provoked several long discussions. I don't know what to label it.
Let me start by saying it's in great condition. The set looks almost new. There's an artfully
engraved set of initials "F M" on the bands (very professional and subtle). The cap looks like the
"Emblem" model, while the barrel has a stairstep end (like the cap end of the #7, #5, or #94). It's a
single arm lever (not Ink-Vue style). The nib says "Red Waterman Ideal Canada", and the very clear imprint
also says that the set is from Canada. I'd say the nib is a flexible Fine-medium that's fun to write with.

| Canadian Waterman - Flex Nib |
Burgundy Canadian Waterman lever filler in great shape. Main wear is to the
barrel (from cap wear and posting). The nib is delightful. Very flexible,
it ranges from a wide medium to broad with very little pressure. There's
one cavaet: a fine crack or deep scratch at the base of the nib. I've filled the
pen, used it, and there's no leakage through the crack/scratch at all. The
nib is cleaner than when I shot the picture. Lever filler, new sac. 5 1/16", 130 mm.
