SW328 Swan Leverless No. 4260.

Date: c1948

Size: Capped - 5 3/16 inches; posted - 6 1/4 inches.

A very nice jet black glossy Swan Leverless pen.  The only damage I can find on it is a little plating wear to the pocket clip ball and shoulder.  This is n
ot really noticeable without some form of magnification.  Otherwise the pen is essentially undamaged.  This is one of those post-war torpedo shaped Swans.  Both the barrel end and cap top taper quite sharply to a point.  The cap is fitted with a gold filled Swan pocket clip with the Swan logon imprinted at the top, a ridged stem and a ball at the bottom.  There are three gold filled cap bands - a wider band flanked by two narrow ones.  The barrel has a good sharp imprint and a milled blind cap that is twisted to fill the pen.  The nib is a Swan No. 2 made from 14 carat gold and in a medium point.

I have fully serviced this pen.  It writes with a very smooth action.  It lays down an excellent wet and medium width line.
