Think these will be stopping here Ed as they look from the listing pics to be in far better condition than the previous pair .

Well that's some very nice words Ed ! Thankyou !!

I just won this pen moments ago on eBay. 3 bidders duked it out and I made a Ninja Stealth bid at the last 3 seconds. paid too much but I've never seen this one come up before.

it has a slightly damaged nib but might be repairable. it is marked Morrison Ridium Tipped USA. I Wasn't familiar with this particular Morrison dip pen but I like the OD color and the marking Property Air Force US Army.

Scored a Medium M-1951 pile liner for my BR Parka for a paltry $30 last week.... Got sick of watching them move at near $100 each... Almost snapped up a $125 $35. Sent in offer of $30 and he pounced... Accidental brilliance...

Aren't some of those made with fiberglass?

After a quick looksee for Morrison contracts for the AAF . ZILCH !!!
got the dip pen today and its not a Morrison. It is a Morriset. I was able to fix the bend at the end of the tip and it writes really well. Also the stamped Property US Army Air Force in in a gold color which really looks great on the OD green.
overall very happy with this pen but now I need to find the matching inkwell that goes with it.
