Arrived today in the post, and won (a very reasonable winning bid!) at a 'local' auction house who also shipped at a very reasonable cost.

Came with the original box, CD, and booklet. Pen needs a little clean and flush, otherwise seems to be absolutely fine.

Is this a 'keep' or a 'sell on' ?? No idea, but I'll probably decide after I've used it a few times.

I just purchased a Starwalker Resin Rollerball/Fineliner yesterday as an early birthday present. My last MB was (I think) a 146 rollerball in 1983, and before that a slim fountain pen that same year. I've been loading up on FPs: Viscontis, an Omas, and various others in the mean time. Love the Starwalker after one day!

Great pen! I have been looking for a Bernstein for a while and could not find one at a reasonable price. Nice buy, good pictures!

I received my new MB Princess Grace Kelly with F nib. Beautiful pen but I need to find the right color ink to go with this beauty.

Would love to see some pictures. Congrats! I hope you enjoy the pen for many years.

A while ago - a few months - I posted somewhere on FPN about a bag that I had ordered.

Well, it is finally in my possession!

 

Came in a very tatty box... "They don't come in boxes any more, but we found one!" Erm, thanks? Haha

Here's some pics...

Picked up a real nice, basically mint condition, large Boheme (149 size) off of Craigslist. Got lucky on this one, as it has a beautiful B / Stub nib.

jsolares Wonderful pen and notebook cover. I have not seen the cover before. It looks really nice. I particularly like the way the pen sits in farther. It appears it would protect the pen more than some covers with pen holders. Please let us know your experiences after using for awhile. Thanks and enjoy.

Very nice. Use it with joy.

I bought the same cover two weeks ago at the Chicago boutique along with a 146 ceramics F nib. Love the cover a lot! Extremely soft leather and I can see the lines/grain/variation of the leather. Will upload a picture when I got home tonight.

Lovely, yours is the tan one it seems, mine is actually the cognac a bit more reddish with a black and grey lining, which doesn't show on the pic. The leather is awesome :)

 

How is the paper in yours? mine feathers a bit and has a lot of bleed through except with the Pilot 78G Fine nib which is extra fine. I ordered a seven seas tomoe river journal which is almost the same size.
