Pilot Silvern?


Seiry

Recommended Posts

Last spring, I came to acquire a Pilot Silvern featuring a paisley pattern. Again, thanks for the info on that pen.

 

It seems I have come across another great find. I found these Pilots today. ^_^ Can anyone give me any details about these? They were a bit tarnished and I cleaned them up a bit.

Very nice find! To date your pens, find the date code on the nib...

 

One of them reads T1276 and the other T470.

Sweet! Someone keeps telling me I have a knack for finding such great deals. *shrugs* I dunno, but I can't complain. ^_^

Those are very nice looking! Where did you "find" them? My searches through antique and thrift stores seldom come up with much, so I am envious!

Hi, Holly. A lot of my vintage pens I've been able to find at a local pen store in the city. I've been able to buy them from the owner's personal collection. The son runs the store and his mom and dad had a huge collection. Some of the pens are only for display in the store. In small batches, she lets some go to be sold in the store. She's a nice lady, too.

And where, exactly, did you say this pen store was? B)
