All my black pens are among my favourite pens. This is one is not completely black, but I'm posting it here anyway.

 

No handwriting on the airmail paper because I was out of time, and out of inspiration. The ink bottle, and the content are from the 40s, just as the pen, a Waterman Crusader -- currently my daily writer.

 

In celebration of Handwriting Day, and in anticipation of Stylophile's Day -- Ottawa Fountain Pen Society, February 1st

Probably a 149 would be more of a favourite but I can't resist this 'one for sex'

Here is one of my favorite black pens with its matching pencil, a vintage Nizzoli Aurora 88 with Nikargenta trim. I just love the sexy sculptured clips on these.

My favorite "pure" black pens, meaning no engravings/detail/filigree or other distractions from the pure, shiny black barrels.

Apologies for the quality, just snapped them with my cellphone at work right now:

From the left: MB149, Goldfink Wunderfuller, Sailor KOP Progear, Parker Duofold Centennial:

KOP: This pen has a crossnib:

..... Goldfink Wunderfuller .....

 

hi .. that Goldfink looks absolutely gorgeous ... can you post more pictures of it... next to the other pens, especially next to the 149 ..

and a close up of the top of the cap ..how it goes from a round shape below the clip ring to hexagonal above it ...

the proportions appeal to me greatly ... reminds of the hemingway, which i just love ...fat & short .. effortlessly held in my hand... ... cheers

Pelikan, if you are also a Hemingway fan, you must take a look at this Goldfink... you'll see, it speaks for itself... :puddle:

I'll take some more pics of all my Goldfinks, and post them. They are among my absolute favorites :cloud9:
