What Pen Are You Waiting For In The Mail 2018

[Shannon]

I succumbed to the Pelikan Massdrop. I should have it sometime this Autumn.... (only half joking)

I know fountainpenlady has now received her beloved back (we've talked about it!). I, in turn, am semi-patiently awaiting a coffeeburl L16 from Ryan. He finished it Saturday, and I paid for it Saturday night. I hope to receive it by the end of the month, so I can use it as the last pen for my #30inks30Days challenge. Attached is Ryan's photo to me:

Not only do I have the aforementioned Krusac in the mail (tomorrow, or Friday, in my hands!), but I now have a Franklin-Christoph antique glass Model 65 coming, too (I lucked into their most recent wish list)! And there is a good chance I have a Sheaffer rollerball somewhere in transit - a friend bought it for me 2+ years ago, then promptly put it away for safekeeping and lost it until a couple of weeks ago.

 

It is a happy pen month for me!

No fries - chip!

No pen - pencil!

Sheaffer Imperial III, Wing Sung 601 and 698, a neon green Lamy Safari, vintage Lamy 2k and a Moonman M2. Strange mix, haha.

The PaperMates I posted about arrived yesterday, here's a photo:

Another Sheaffer Snorkel for my snorkel collection, this time a Valiant with a G5 nib, which I have never tried before.

What's a G5 nib? I don't know enough about Snorkels other than being able to ID what models I have (mostly Valiants and Admirals).

Technically no longer in the mail, it's just that my family signed for it while I'm out of town teaching at a writing workshop: an S. T. Dupont Phoenix Neo-Classique.

 

And really in the mail: a morning glory fountain pen by 18111 Pens.

Pilot Custom 823

Pilot Custom Heritage 91 in broad, take-sume (sp?) color. Super excited for this one. Can’t wait to fill it with Robert Oster Thunderstorm—my new favorite ink (iroshizuku tsuyu-kusa is a close second).

A Retro 51 Zodiac fountain pen, and still waiting on the Pelikan brown tortoise (shipping from Europe).

[Inkyways]

One waterman's vintage 501 Champion 14k semi-Flex nib.

 

Vintage Jewel Fountain pen " ZIG ZAG" From London Jewel pen Co. I bought this Antique pen on a Sale at Ebay. It seems to be an amazing piece with a historic value.

Namiki Yukari Milky Way fountain pen. I'm really stoked for this one!

[Tigerlillian]

Unused Platinum vintage pocket pen, 18k soft fine. This will make number 7 (and second gold nib) in my very small FP collection.

[Martolod]

Wing Sung 237, the images are crazy beautiful. I'm a little worried that it might not look the same since it's coming from China and I never dealt with the dealer before. Secondly, it's NOS, I hope I don't need to replace the ink sac or anything because I have 0 Experience with vintage fountain pens. Really hope it goes ok.

I have ordered the same but with a MF nib in Tsuki-Yo colour. Cannot decide the ink for it though as I do not have any Iroshizuku inks yet.

Also, ordered a Platinum Oshino in broad last night.
