ITEM #CF REFILL: BALLPOINT REFILLS FOR OLDER AND LATER CFs AND OTHER WATERMAN's BALLPOINTS.   I had a batch of those funky old refills with the flared back ends made. These fit BOTH of the Waterman's CF ballpoint releases from the 50s and the ones from the 80s. They fit most of the other older Waterman's ballpoints shown below, the ones with the long monster springs. And they fit the newer 80s release CFs with the fold-over rube goldberg holders for the fillers (one of these pens is shown at the bottom of the first photo). They fit a lot of other early Waterman's ballpoints that aren't shown below; If yours has a flared back end on the refill and the monster spring, these will fit.The second photo shows typical Waterman's older non-CF ballpoints that these fit as well as a later "Classic" CF released in the 80s. The last photo shows the dimensions of the original filler that these replace. Black ink w/ a tungsten carbide ball.

We also made a different version of these that fits Cartier Must, Trinity, Vendome, Cougar, and Panther. Ask about those if interested.

ITEM #4467: BIRO SQUIRE BALLPOINT IN ROSE GOLD. This gorgeous piece includes the original presentation box. Biro started making ballpoints in '44, but these weren't very functional or marketable. Biro Pens Ltd.started marketing usable ballpoints in '51 and merged with Societe Bic France in '67, taking on the name Biro Bic Ltd. This unused original Biro Squire pen in rose gold plating is a Biro as opposed to Biro Bic; this is most likely a seldom found early to mid 60s example. The oriiginal filler dried out decades ago and has been replaced with a modern day, working filler.

$125

ITEM #4578: REYNOLDS PACKET BALLPOINT ON CLEAR RED PLASTIC STAND.  In simulated leather tubular presentation box with papers. This was a part of the Dick Johnson collection. Dick was way ahead of us, collecting this stuff way back when it first became surplus N.O.S. Usually these pens are pretty beaten-up if you can find them, never found this pristine and complete. The dark green anodized finish on this pen is almost perfect with very few flaws. the bare aluminum top dome unscrews so the pen can be placed in the clear red plastic base. You never find these with both the base and the removable aluminum dome. Of course, the ink in the filler has long since dried-out. This is one of Milton Reynold's first ballpoints on the market, which didn't work so well, of which Kenneth Parker made the observation "It'll make 8 carbon copies but no original". This is why Parker was so late in getting a ballpoint to market; they wanted to wait until they could develope a reliable product, not one like this. This is an American marketing classic case.

ITEM #4577: REYNOLDS PACKET BALLPOINT ON CLEAR RED PLASTIC STAND.  In simulated leather tubular presentation box with papers. This was a part of the Dick Johnson collection. Dick was way ahead of us, collecting this stuff way back when it first became surplus N.O.S. Usually these pens are pretty beaten-up if you can find them, never found this pristine and complete. The black anodized finish on this pen is almost perfect with very few flaws. the bare aluminum top dome unscrews so the pen can be placed in the clear red plastic base. You never find these with both the base and the removable aluminum dome. Of course, the ink in the filler has long since dried-out. There is a tight, straight, radial crack in the translucent red base. It can be seen in the photos below.

ITEM #MC: PARKER CAP ACTUATED BALLPOINT CLICKER ARBOR.  Locks the clicker mechanism in a Parker cap actuated ballpoint from the open end of the cap so you can apply other tools on the outside to remove the jewel ("Clip Screw" in Parker repair manual parlance) and then the bushing, which holds the clip, cap shell, and internal mechanism all together. At this point you can work dents out of the cap or replace the clicker mechanism or clip, or whatever else your need may be with the cap disassembled. This works for all the vintage Parker cap actuated BPs I've tried it with; 51, 45, 61, etc. The two slots in the tool lock-up with two tabs in the clicker ratchet mechanism so you can apply torque to unscrew things holding the cap together using other tools like Gooey cubes and item #13732.

Mike Conway, a Parker employee, was going around the plant in Janesville collecting the old one-way (to tighten) machine ends for putting caps together and started putting handles on them for use in repair. He realized that THIS design - what's pictured below - was "what was needed" as it operates in both directions (to tighten and to loosen), so he made a bunch of these, one of which I glommed onto. (He said it was OK for me to make these, by the way) - Thus the part # designation, "MC".

$30

ITEM #4659: PARKER HOPALONG CASSIDY BALLPOINT.  Parker's first ballpoint! In extremely good condition with no chips, nicks, or paint missing from his hat (these are usually pretty beat-up). The rope script writing is fairly complete (this is usually all black - this example has about 85% of the rope in white). And of course the filling unit dried-out decades ago.

George Parker's grand daughter once bought one of these from me at the Chicago Pen Show. She recounted to me how the French had depleted the Parker Pen Archives in the U.S. by moving it to France and the Parker family was trying to re-build it here, and this was a classic type of pen that they definitely wanted.

$160

ITEM #4609: SHREVE GERMANY (4) COLOR BALLPOINT. The writing color is gravity selected - you hold the pen horizontally, with the color small dot matching the ballpoint filler ink color you want facing up while you push in the clicker.

No dents or dings in barrel or cap.

$95

ITEM #4686: NOS PELIKAN (4) COLOR BALLPOINTS.  The writing color is gravity selected - you hold the pen horizontally, with the color small rectangle matching the ballpoint filler ink color you want facing up while you push in the clicker.

ITEM #4574-75: BALL 'O' GRAPH NEW OLD STOCK PRIMITIVE BALLPOINT.  This is a beautiful brown woodgrained early plastic and it uses a very simple spring loaded shouldered clicker and a long since dried-out very thick brass filler. This is in like new cosmetic condition. It has never been used. I found it in a slotter box full of new old ones in the Dick Johnson collection of early ballpoints which I bought a lot of at the Ohio Pen Show along with a large number of Reynolds pieces (in very elaborate display packaging).

$40

ITEM #4298: 1946 EVERSHARP CA BALLPOINT - UPGRADED W/ MODERN FILLER. This was made by Eversharp as a ballpoint and has been recently converted to use a modern day filler, so unlike most ballpoints of this vintage, it works. Black with gold filled cap. This appears to be made from the barrel and cap used on the fountain pen with a newly designed aluminum black anodized front end to accommodate a ballpoint filler. No dents or brassing in/on the metal.

$40

ITEM #4277: WATERMAN's RETRACTABLE (CLICKER) BALLPOINT. Ca. 1957, right before they were sold to BIC. This is a very well built pen, having a thick metal cap and thick plating. This one is not corroded or brassed at all and the clicker is not chewed-up; a pristine example, and the mechanism works! This uses an extremely long spring and a rare filler with a flared tail end. These fillers continued to be used into the late eighties, even after the operations were moved to France. But you can't find the fillers any more, except at PENTOOLING, and this item comes with a new, freshly made filler.
