Conklin Mark Twain Crescent Fountain Pen, Yellow/ Blue Marble (CK71123) Overview

Celebrating the pen that started it all, The Conklin Pen Co. introduces the Mark Twain Crescent Collection, an exact replica of the original Conklin crescent filler used and promoted by Mark Twain. Inventor Roy Conklin designed the world’s first practical self-filling fountain pen. The design is easy and simple to use. In 1903, MARK TWAIN, the legendary American author, began his relationship with The Conklin Pen Co, the great American pen manufacturer. As a spokesman for Conklin, Twain advertised and promoted the famous Conklin Crescent Filler. Mark Twain expressed the virtues of this unique self-filling fountain pen in a series of advertisements in which he stated "I prefer it to ten other fountain pens, because it carries its filler in its own stomach, and I can not mislay even by art or intention. Also, I prefer it because it is a profanity saver; it cannot roll off the desk." Based on the original designs of earlier models, all Conklin pens are hand manufactured by artisans dedicated to producing writing instruments worthy of their legendary name and are highly valued by collectors as well as pen enthusiasts throughout the world. Fine details and unique features of this pen include a heavy chromium clip and center ring engraved with the legendary “Conklin” trademark name. Mark Twain’s famous signature is engraved on the back of the center ring. The chromium crescent is engraved with “Conklin” on one side and “Crescent Filler Trade Mark” on the other side. The flexible two-tone fountain pen nib is personalized with the historic Conklin “Toledo, Ohio, USA” mark and a special crescent shaped breathing hole. The stainless steel nib with iridium tip is both smooth and dependable. Available in Fine, Medium and Broad nib sizes.
