Instead of a big pen, a big letter... Writing in A3 paper. It makes the pen to look tiny!

 

Today's mail, with Visconti HS Bronze, and Visconti Sepia ink. F nib.

“Of the gladdest moments in human life, methinks, is the departure upon a distant journey into unknown lands. Shaking off with one mighty effort the fetters of Habit, the leaden weight of Routine, the cloak of many Cares and the slavery of Civilization, man feels once more happy.” - Sir Richard. F. Burton

Thanks, dcpritch! Since I am usually the one dying of envy from all your delicious pens, it's nice to have the tables turned for once. :P Just wait until Monday, I've got a pen that I'm using now that you'll LOVE. But for now ...

saskia, when your photo is enlarged the ink looks exactly like an orange gum drop!

carlosviet, lovely writing on HUGE paper! I've written letters that ended up long, but I'm not sure I've ever intended to write a letter that would fill such a large sheet of paper. Wow!

 

Mukukaduk, I don't have a brush pen but I like what you can do with yours. :thumbup:

 

Here's a pen I've had for a while. I recently swapped the nib for one I like better, and boy, do I like it!

I think of the Deluxe Ink-Vue as one of the best examples of Art Deco styling: the gorgeous Emerald Ray celluloid, the concentric rings at cap top and barrel bottom, the extra styling on clip, cap rings and lever, the interesting filling system. I don't mean to wax on about it, and I apologize for my long and band-width-robbing post, but not a single person in my little town cares a wit about fountain pens and I need to share this with someone. I hope you all can join in my appreciation of such a lovely writing instrument. Here are some other pics:

It seems you have no problems mastering this new type of nib (as expected). :thumbup:

Some time ago I thought it would be cool to have such a pen, but unfortunately I´m completely unable to use such a pen. :gaah:
