Pelikan Logos

[phoenix_2007]

As a Pelikan fan (I own three souveraen M150, M450 and M650 accompanied by many nibs and leather cases), I wonder whether there are available older Pelikan Logos (for instance, those of the years 1878,1895,1910, 1913, 1922 or newer, separately each as an image) in a poster style. In fact, I am interested in hanging such a poster on the wall of my office! Has Pelikan ever produced such images separately as posters (for DEMO reasons, for example)?

Thanking you in advance!

I never saw anything official from Pelikan, but you could get you own posters printed with all the Pelikan logos.

An EPS (scalable to super high resolutions) version of the modern, one-chick Pelikan logo can be found online via Google.

Thank you for your answer! However, these logos are in very poor analysis and in a poster dimension they won't be printed correctly, I am afraid. Where could I find logos in high analysis?

Haha thanks once again, but...

I guess I will try my luck over Ebay! I recently won a bid on a new old-style black/gold M200 for 80 USD shipped, so I am pretty happy over it!

 

Have you checked out PenGallery? They're in KL, so shipping may be less expensive. Maybe for your next Pelikan

 

About your questions on logos:

 

Firstly, the Pelikan logo has changed over the decades --

The diagram doesn't include the most recent logo, used from 2003 onwards. There's only 1 chick in that one.

 

Secondly, since all the pens are of different sizes the logo designs differ due to size and aesthetic constraints.

 

Thirdly, for a given model the representations of the logo on the cap top have changed too. For example, the M400 when first released in 1982 had engraved logos like the 1950s 400s they were based on. Pelikan changed this to silkscreen-printed cap tops in 1997.

 

Don't think there is anything of higher resolution though.
