Probably
the most popular English pens and pencils of all time, Conway Stewarts
were marketed between 1905 and 1977.
During that time many hundreds of different models were manufactured,in
a dazzling array of varying colours, patterns and styles -
ranging from the small lever-filler "Dinkies" to the very large
button-filler "Duro" pens.
Many of the models featured here date from the period just after the
second-world war, when production was re-started with the No.55 and 286
pens. In 1949 the now familiar more 'streamlined' look was introduced
with the No.28 and 58 models, and these were soon followed by many
others (including 12,14,15, 24,27,60,75,388...)with the now
sought-after herringbone patterns being introduced in 1957,and only
manufactured for the next three or so years.
Beautifully
made, these pens are not just desirable collectors' items - they are
also a delight to use.
(Condition Scale: F = Fair. G = Good. VG = Very Good. EX = Excellent).
