Postal Reservoir Fountain Pen

Up for auction is a Postal Reservoir Fountain pen from 1920. This one has been sitting around for a while, so I (finally) got around to replacing the sac. While I was at it, I cleaned it up best I could and tested it with a shockingly large fill of Parker Quink. Geez - this thing holds a TONNE of ink.

Either way, I put a nylon/clear sac in it. The barrel transparency is excellent. The filler tube works properly. The section is in good shape. The cap doesn't have any cracks. There is no crazing/microcracks in the barrel. The clip is sprung a bit (I'm not going to touch the clip). There is some brassing on the cap ring.

The nib is a 14k #2. Its a smooth medium-ish nib.  In the photo below is some ink leftover on the nib. The tip is in great shape, with no bends and it writes with a hint of flex.
