Mabie Todd Swan Red Mottled- Super Flex (On Ebay)
Here is a made in England Mabie Todd “Swan” Self-Filler in red mottled hard rubber. The pen is in excellent condition. There is minimal fading of the hard rubber. The lever has a little bit of brassing, but not much. Imprints are all very clear and crisp. The nib is a very flexy 14kt. Mabie Todd nib (I think it’s a #2, but I forgot to check before reinserting it) that goes from a fine 0.5mm all the way up to 2.1mm. The nib writes very smoothly and flexes just as smoothly.
