Not much help -- I fed it into Photoshop and applied massive levels (the /lightest/ tone in that image is 50%) and unsharp masking...

 

Unfortunately, the nib is imprint-side down, and the pocket clip is on the side. Only thing I brought out is what appears to be a greenish visualated section between the nib and section trim ring, with an actual black section at the nib end.

Hmmmm... the cap reminds me of a Cross Pen... looks a little like a Townsend? Not exactly, but that's all that came to mind for me.

Clip doesn't work. The gold band above the section is what's confusing me the most about this pen. I don't remember any pen of the era with that pattern.

True. I am at a loss for the moment. I'll keep looking.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
