Waterman Fountain Pens


Founded in New York in 1884 and noted for its early development of a successful feed system, Waterman was one of the giants of the pen industry during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Though upstart companies like Wahl-Eversharp and Sheaffer would soon challenge its dominance, it nonetheless remained a noted manufacturer of elegant and eminently usable fountain pens well past World War II. A French subsidiary continues operations to this day. When you buy an American Waterman, you are acquiring not just a terrific writing instrument, but also a living relic of the history of fountain pens...
