Sorry about my photo quality, I can't seem to get them right yet.

I received this pen in a lot earlier in the month and can't figure out the model or when it might have been manufactured. It is 4 and a half inches long capped, five and a half inches posted. The nib is a 2 signature, unfortunately one tine is missing the irridium. It is a sweet pen and I think worthy of a nib repair? What is the consensus?
What you have is a 1932-1934 Wahl-Eversharp Equi-poised Clasp Model. It came in 5 basic colors including the Black and Pearl you show in your picture. In the catalog of 1932 it is listed as model #6204TK. It sold originally for $3.00 in an era when the biggest top of the line pens sold for between $7 and $10. In good restored condition even allowing for the moderate discoloration you show in your photo, the pen might have a current value of between $95 and 125. In my opinion it will be less expensive to replace the broken nib with another #2 nib for about $30 than to pay for repair and re-tipping., as the #2 nibs are not rare nor hard to find. Besides I don't think the #2 Signature nib is original to this pen. The correct nib for it would have been a Wahl Eversharp nib with the Evershrp word a sort of a swoosh rising from lowwr left to middile right on the nib.
Hope this information is of interest or use to you.
