What's Your Most Recent Addition To The Flock?

[whych]

 

And the flock grows...

Doesn't everybody's?

Pelikans have to be the most prolific breeders around.

Weirdly enough, since you contacted me about that pen I've been seeing a *lot* of the same M150s around in unused conditions.

Where??

Where??

Just this little guy. Also in about three weeks I will be expecting an engraved M805 demo with super extra fine needlepoint.

Arrived this week set of 3 Pelikan Celebry - not had much of a chance to road test them as I am in love with my 1952 Vintage 400.

My latest addition, M800 Tortoise with M nib.

I was lucky enough to find a shop that had one left for the RSP.

I just bought a demo M1005 for a nice price, broad nib. Debating whether I should sell it off for a small profit or keep it as another birthday present for myself... Those damn birds, they really put you in awkward positions and affect your thought process. It was really hard to part ways with two M800s that I sold recently, I almost convinced myself to keep both(!). Thankfully people bought them before I did something stupid.

That's a nice desk set. Are the nibs two different sizes?

The M1005 is a really big pen. I like using M800s, but the M1000 is too big for long writing sessions. And I'm a big guy with big hands.

Nice catch. Green & gray marble sleeve? How much did the penstand set cost you?

Beautiful drawings! What kind of nib have you got there?

The nibs are new style - after 1955, like a Pеlikan 400NN. Green pen is with F /fine/ nib and gray is with EF /extra fine/. Mint /NOS/ condition, as produced in the second half of the 50's in the factory of Pelikan in Milan, Italy. I won them at auction. I paid price € 169.79 and € 35 for postage - € 204.79. Or they cost me a total about $ 225 - 230.

Thanks for the reply. I like the other one, too.

It's true, they multiply when you don't pay attention.
