$5.00 Price Sticker on Cap
A black and bronze Conklin Endura set in mint condition. The instruments are both a hair under 5 inches long. The gold filled trim is perfect. Even the clip ends (a typical weak point) are perfect. The yellow rings are still nearly intact. The price sticker affixed to the top of the cap is testimony to the condition of this remarkable set. The nib is a Fine with a fair bit of flex.
Restored.
The Oversize 7M Model
The silver herringbone is perhaps the most difficult color to find in this Conklin series. The 7M is the largest model. This example has virtually no discoloration, no chips cracks or other flaws. The metal trim is also excellent. The nib is a Smooth Rigid/Fine. New Gasket installed.
Correct Mottled Section
A wonderful little pen in red hard rubber with no cracks or chips. The pen is 4 1/2 inches long and has replace met nib which so nice that I have decided to leave it as it is. It is a long-tined Laughlin #4 with a bit of flex, lots of iridium and F-M. The trim has a spot or two of brassing. The imprint is fully legible and crisp in spots. The pen is restored and will make a great writer.
The largest sized pen that Carter produced. The pen has no cracks , chips or other problems. There is a bit of brassing to the cap rings, a tad to the lever and clip ball. The pen has a bit of discoloration toward the bottom of the barrel. Usually these are far more discolored. The nib is a huge Carter medium with only a bare hint of flex. 5 1/2 inches long.

It is a wonderful green snakeskin. The pen has no flaws. The pen is 5 1/8 inches long. the nib is a M with a bit of flex. Restored.

This an exceptional opportunity to own a great pen in great condition. This is a tough Pattern to find. Especially in this condition. This pattern is generally referred to as the stars and stripes. The pen is 5 3/16 when in the closed position. These early gold filled Conklins tend to brass easily particularly at the top edge of the cap, just below the section, the lock ring and on the posting end. This example has almost no brassing to mention. The only visible flaws are a few tiny dings on the side of the posting end visible in the images provided. The images actually make the slight damage seem worse. The nib is a stub Conklin Toledo 2. The pen is restored and ready to use.
