What's Your Most Recent Mb Purchase?

[camoandconcrete]

Just got home from Newport, RI so I finally got a chance to write with my new 136. I have also shown it with my 138, Pelikan 400NN Tortoise and my new Meisterstück Selection pen case. I have included my Instagram and FPGeeks names so as to let you know its me when I post these pictures elsewhere.

Kevin, I'm so glad to see that you have finally received your 136 and are happy with it. I like the pen, the elegant Art Deco fluted clip and the line variation that that wetty oblique nib produces in your hands. It forms a superb set with your 138 and Pelikan 400. Now I want one of those ;-)

Congrats!

Thank you Carlos! The nib is very wet and appears to be one of the early 146 14kt. gold versions. Also, I don't think you'll regret buying a vintage Pelikan.

I just ordered/won my first 149. Started a thread about it and am very excited to receive it and get it inked.

Something completely unexpected....a MB Dostoevsky (no box) from eBay. Wow. I was sure someone would beat my bid, but...nope. Still speechless...

[saskia_madding]

How much did you snag it for and what nib is on it? Ive been hunting for one with a BB. No luck so far!

I got this nice MB 72 at a fleamarket recently, it writes smoothly, and is in very good shape

That certainly is in good condition for a flea market buy

 

You're certainly on a roll here

The guy who sold it said he had gotten it in the sixties, but never used it.

I'm so envious! Lovely pen.

 

I think flea markets where you live are substantially different than the ones where I live. Here, one is quite literally at risk of being flea bitten, and the flea market is more like a very low end garage sale.

[farmdogfan]

Thank you very much.

 

Not all markets here are worth visiting either, and most of the time there aren´t any fountain pens at all, but this guy at the local market told me he had a MB at home, and promised to call when he had found it, after a couple of weeks he called and i went and bought it.

My Heritage 1912 arrived. It's a heavy, modern looking pen.
