Valentine 04 Basketweave - Green-brown - Flexible nib (SB 746)

Nib: 14 Kt Medium Flex

Valentine was an English Pen Company based in Newhaven. This pen dates from the 1930s, before Parker took over the company and their factory. It's a lever filler. The flaws: the clip is a replacement (from before the pen reached my hands), and the hard-rubber top to the cap has been chewed on - probably by a pair of pliers used to remove the cap-top at some point. Otherwise the pen looks great. The nib is a 14 Kt medium flex. 5", 128 mm.
