What's Your Most Recent Mb Purchase?


Blade Runner

Recommended Posts

Thought my next pen would be the Collodi but I've just bought a MB Shaw medium nib off of ebay. The price was too good to resist.

 

I've been a bad boy this week. For only the 2nd time I've bought 2 pens in the same week (the first time was May so a trend may be forming). Last night I picked up my Collodi fountain pen.

 

I also thought I didnot collect ink. Whilst collecting the pen I asked for some Mystery Black ink. When the lady opened the ink draw I saw and bought the following:

- Mystery Black

- Collodi (my second bottle)

- Gandhi

- White Forest Season's Greetings

- Love Letter Ink

 

I'm hoping the Shaw turns up tomorrow. If it does then I will have a very busy weekend playing with 2 pens and 3 new inks which I didn't think I'd ever own.

My Collection: Montblanc Writers Edition: Hemingway, Christie, Wilde, Voltaire, Dumas, Dostoevsky, Poe, Proust, Schiller, Dickens, Fitzgerald (set), Verne, Kafka, Cervantes, Woolf, Faulkner, Shaw, Mann, Twain, Collodi, Swift, Balzac, Defoe, Tolstoy, Shakespeare, Saint-Exupery, Homer & Kipling. Montblanc Einstein (3,000) FP. Montblanc Heritage 1912 Resin FP. Montblanc Starwalker Resin: FP/BP/MP. Montblanc Traveller FP.

Now, now.

 

You know I am just taking a lead from your efficient and organised collecting :thumbup:

 

I have also bought, but not yet received, the 144 as a demonstrator.

 

I am thrilled with that and will certainly ink it right up!

 

I am really pleased with the celluloid tiger eye collection- they are really beautiful.

 

Next is maybe a grey (or gray if you come from other countries...) striated 146G to sit with my green one.

 

Makar had a beautiful one.

@ BrandonA:

Finally you got the Collodi. Hope you like it!

Enjoy al the new "toys".

 

Thank you KJY.

 

My Shaw arrived yesterday too. I'm therefore testing 2 new pens this weekend.

 

I think the Shaw is going to become one of my favourite WE pens.
