The name though is not known to all people.

I only have the Oliver Exam. I understand that the Exam has been used in schools in India? Fair writing nib. It came with my Premium Ebonite Ranga eyedropper. Your Oliver is very attractive :wub:

It's the only Oliver I own. I would like to add a nicer one to my Indian pen collection. I just found it on EbayUSA! Is it a #6 nib?? Hard to tell from the picture.

I have an Oliver Ideal, which was the basis of the eyedropper pen supplied by Nathan with some of the big bottles of ink some years ago, but of course with the standard Oliver nib rather than the flex nib. A simple eyedropper, and the merest tweak was needed to get it to write very nicely.

 

There seems to be a lot of model-sharing between the Indian manufacturers, so I do not even know which models were actually made by Oliver, or any other firm. But I haven't seen the same pen sold under another name so it might be of their own manufacture.

No, I am not going to list my pens here.

I just placed my order from Ranga for the Color #3 I hope it is as nice as the one in the picture. Do you know what size nib and feed this pen uses and is the feed ebonite?

The Nib is fine and feed is transparent plastic feed

Well Bad News! Ranga pens just wrote and said they do not have the Blue Black pen their eBay AD states available in 20 Colors. Matter of Fact they said they only had 7 colors to choose from. All of those colors I do not like. I asked for a refund since their eBay ad is misrepresented. I hope they do the right thing and refund my money immediately. I was so looking forward to getting an Oliver F27 to try out especially when the eBay ad showed the desired color as a option. They also had other colors that were listed that I would of settled for however they did not have those colors either. I hear great things about Ranga and I noticed on the group buy someone received a pen and the color was not same as the image. I think they need to work on their accuracy of advertising their products if this is a issue. Anyway hoping for the best....

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast. 
    • Ceilidh
      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
