What's new

A Special Snorkel from a Special Aunt.

The last gift of the day was from a distant Aunt that had heard that I had a new hobby, and that I had restored six lever fillers in the past few months with new sacs. She mentioned in her card that after her husband passed away a few years ago that she had been looking for a relative interested in fountain pens. I am hoping that the box is correct. The nib had a little dried ink and the sac is very springy, but I am hesitant to load it with water to check for leaks.

Very nice, hope you get it working I'm sure your Aunt will love your desire for it and you will enjoy for years to come
 
It doesn't have a white dot so that makes it a little easier to pickout the year. IIRC there was only a brief span when snorkels didn't have a white dot.

You should like it once you get it inked!

Great pen, congrats. Open nib snorkels are nice, I've got a palladium silver nib on mine.

Most complex filling mech in a FP.
