I found this interesting photo with two of Hermann Hesse's fountain pens on the website of the Fondazione Hermann Hesse Montagnola (www.hessemontagnola.ch). It would be great if someone could help identify them ... Thanks!

This is not a very helpful picture (1939) of Thomas Mann using a fountain pen but maybe some of you can help me narrow down the possibilities ... or know more about Mann's fountain pen(s)? To me it looks like a rather big pen, flat top, 30s Sheaffer "8" or Duofold Senior . . . Montblanc model 30? Thanks!

While I was watching the news this evening I caught this image of King Albert of Belgium signing his abdication today in Brussels. I've always believed that even when the use of fountain pens has declined so much that hardly any other than FPN freaks currently use them, they were still displayed in solemn occasions. But if I am not mistaken the writing instrument used by King Albert today IS NOT a fountain pen, is it?
