Swan fountain Pen and Stephen’s Self-filling pen boxes with accessories including: two pens, two wooden stoppers, one ‘B. S. Cohen’ wooden cylinder, one metal rectangle, two cork stoppers and one metal cylinder. Made by Mabie, Todd and Company Limited circa 1884-1930s.
Dip pens do not have internal reservoirs like most modern pens do, so the nib must be dipped into a bowl of ink to work. This pen is marketed as self-filling and seeks to solve the time consuming and messy need to dip your pen.
The Swan fountain pen began being manufactured by Mabie, Todd and Company in around 1884.
