Not quite a full family portrait, as one of the kids is visiting up North, and the dip pen isn't inked with anything just now, but, this is almost all the fountain pens....

Should have said. It's an Esterbrook J, 9788 nib, Montblanc Midnight Blue ink, and a vintage Conklin Crescent Filler with Private Reserve Black Cherry.

(Noodler´s Ahab EMF ..... Rohrer & Klingner Salix)

 

I don´t have a reference to compare it to a Falcon, as I don´t one one.

If I remember right then you (Uncle Red) also own a Ahab.

@Zoniguana, this Mod might be also interesting for you.

 

You can find a description of the Ahab - Ease my Flex Mod here:

It´s easy to modify it, everyone can do it.

Holy Moly are the right words for this.

That´s amazing (pen, penmanship, ink shading)!

 

If this is referenced from this thread, then something went completely wrong with the latest optimizations of the board.

I faced update problems with "My Content" yesterday and did not saw also some new postings, but also when I look now back I cannot find this Post from Plistumi.

 

 

..... Ahh, now I see this is 1 year old....

WSR, welcome to the thread, and to FPN! It's great to have you here.

 

There's no such thing as "slumming" as long as you have a fountain pen . The whole point here is to see what folks are using and learn to appreciate pens and inks and paper we might not otherwise have seen or known about. Oh, and occasionally gawk at some beautiful handwriting or artwork when we are so blessed.

 

The idea (as you have immediately grasped) is to post with a photo of your pen and writing. I can't at the moment because the Board software won't let me upload from my iPhone, so please excuse my failing. Glad to have you!

 

Cheers, David

Hello

 

I am completely new to the world of pens. I do not know if this forum can provide me the answers i am looking for but let's give it a try! I have been on a holiday in France and i bought an old 'Waterman' set of pens. But..... I really do not know what i bought and what it is worth. I've contacted waterman itself and they aknowledge that it is an official set but it isn't for sale anymore. I bought this set for only five euro's so i did a great job anyhow i guess.

 

Is there anyone on this forum who can tell me anything about this set?? I will add some pictures!

 

It is the Waterman 'Ideal Paris' set. Does anyone know what year it was sold in? What is it worth? And maybe some general information!

 

In advance, I thank you very much.

 

Greetings

SWijsen

Hi swijsen and welcome to FPN.

 

It sounds like you did get a great deal on that set, but I don't know much about modern Waterman fountain pens so I can't be of much help. Perhaps someone on this thread might be of help, but it might be best if you post a new thread in the First Stop forum with your question and photos, that way your query won't be lost and will get some immediate attention. You might also want to post in the New Members forum and introduce yourself to everyone.

 

Glad to have you!

Thank you for your reaction. I have opened a new topic in the first stop section. I hope it will give me some info! Thanks
