This collection represents a truly unique offering, sourced directly from the personal archives of a former CEO of Parker Waterman USA. As such, it presents an extraordinary opportunity to acquire writing instruments with significant historical and developmental value. Notably, the collection includes several prototype pens, providing a rare glimpse into the innovative design processes and experimental craftsmanship inherent in the creation of these iconic brands. These prototypes, all confirmed to be in working order, offer a fascinating perspective on the evolution of pen technology and aesthetics, making this a highly desirable acquisition for discerning collectors and enthusiasts.

The Waterman Liaison, introduced shortly after the Man 100 collection, represented an innovative design tailored for the American market, distinguished by its unique aesthetic. This new-old-stock "COBRA" model features a black resin body designed to evoke the texture of cobra scales, accented with palladium-plated trim. It is equipped with a smooth, medium-sized, rhodium-plated 18k gold tubular nib, known for its fluid line. The pen incorporates a distinctive filling system where the entire body unscrews, allowing the nib block to be removed from the front.
