Do Excellent Fountain Pen/mechanical Pencil Combo Pens Exist?

Oh Combos! If I had read this earlier, I would have posted this one sooner. It is a Schnell Pencilpen. It is supposedly by the person who started the fad.

This looks exactly like mine does, but mine is multi colored, and says Champion, Made in USA on the clip. Does anyone know where I can get lead for the pencil, and how to put it in? I like the way the pen writes. I will be interested to see how it does with my Black Bulletproof Noodler's, when it arrives in the next day or so.

I have just acquired one of these combos for around 15 dollars on eBay. It has a number 6 nib, and the pusher seems to be fine for the pencil. It does not have an eraser. It would be really cool to have a fountain pen/pencil/eraser combo. I am an artist also, and have just recently discovered the versatility of the fountain pen. I have been on a quest for the perfect pen, ever since Pilot stopped making the one i used to draw with.

 

Now I can buy a bottle of ink, and fill up the pen with the nib that matches my mood.I have some Noodler's Bulletproof black coming, plus every color of Dr. Ph. Martins concentrated water colours. I used to hand color B&W photos with the Dr.Ph.Martins.I got the entire set as a wedding gift in 1987.They have been stored in a cool dark place, and while some of them had evaporated a little, their colors were all stable. I just added some purified water to those that had evaporated a bit. They are not waterproof or light fast, but they are sure fun to play with. I can't wait for the Noodler's to arrive!

 

I am still trying to figure out how to share a photo from Picasa or Google Drive.

 

Although you have upgraded to Supporter Rhodium (Thanks for that) the software still has the precautions for new members.

In a few days you will see a button "Upload" on top of the screen, in the row just below the FPN Logo.

Clicking on that button will open a new Tab/window where you can upload a pic from your computer or another website.

The picture will be stored on our servers. From that pic you will see 3 codes, choose BB-code. Copy that code and paste it in your post and the pic will be shown inline in your post.

The good thing about upload, over the method you used now, is that even if your account elsewhere is terminated or you accidentally erase some pics, the pictures is stored safely here on FPN.

 

 

Enjoy

I am drooling over the colors!

 

Old celluloid is my weakness.

 

I have a number of combos, from a little Peter Pan up to a no-name which is huge. Just checking quickly I see that at least one is a Parker, one is an Arnold, several have no names, and I am sure there are Wearevers in there but I haven't looked at every pen I own this morning...

 

The hefty green no-name is one of my treasures because it has stamped on it "London Shrine Club Outing August 7, 1941." Maybe they were celebrating the end of the Blitz, or maybe it was their annual outing and they just kept it going, but somehow I find this impressive. An outing, complete with imprinted pen/pencil combo - genteelly prepared for anything...

Here's a pencil/pen from my father-in-law. He's 94, so I have no idea how old the pen is... It says Streamline on it. He's obviously used it a lot. He started off as a clerk in the Tacoma WA police dept after WWII.

I have a solid gold 14kt Twinpoint fp/mp combo made in NYC, with my grandfather's name engraved on the cartouche. Needs a new ink sac. Looks like a custom nib, maybe a broad cursive italic. In fact, the nib looks like RIchard Binder's work, but the pen's probably too old for that! Any idea of the likely date or value?
