Visconti Wall Street in green celluloid with a fine nib. An unexpected gift from my father for good Summer school grades.

My loot from the DC Pen Show...

 

  • Nakaya Decapod, aka-tamenuri, stiff Medium nib;
  • Pelikan M205 Blue Demonstrator, Fine nib;
  • OMAS Italia (a bluish green pen in the old-style Paragon shape, from 1990), Medium nib;
  • S.T. Dupont Defi, Medium nib;
  • Montblanc Thomas Mann with a Bold nib, on its way to me from the Fountain Pen Hospital in a few weeks;
  • And last but not least, a wine bottle stopper.

I know I should feel guilty for my purchases. But instead, I feel quite satisfied. ;)

 

Wow, good job! I also came away from D.C. with a Nakaya Decapod, the clipless version in heki-tamenuri, with a music nib. It is becoming one of my favorite writers.

 

Now I am waiting for: a Visconti Romanica in silver and a Visconti Arte Mudejar from Bryant's awesome sale.

My MB 146 with 1.0mm Minuskin cursive italic came today, part of a trade I did with rroossinck. It's a very sweet nib. I was worried it would be too sharp for me but it's pretty smooth.

Another successful day. Received my Conway Stewart 100 in marbled blue with a medium nib from Swisher's attic. This one I worked to get.

A black Sheaffer PFM III, with an F nib (on lay-away courtesy of a good friend) - my grail pen!

 

A Sheaffer 350, silvery grey, #3 damaged nib that I asked another friend to turn into a stub. Still planning to resac that one :)

Well not quite today but a pen I've wanted for a while - a DaniTrio Raw Ebonite Densho with an EF Flexy nib now filled with Pilot Iroshizuku KuJaku. What a combo!

I've just come back from my mother's house with her old Parker 51. She didn't even know she had it and just gave it to me. Bless her!!

Just got my '43 P51 back from restoration. She's a beauty and OldGriz did top notch work.
