My 6th (?) Parker 51 Aerometric is in the mail from the UK. This will be my first true broad nib 51, so I'm looking forward to a nice juicy line!

I’m waiting on 2 Esterbrook vintage pens. One is a blue J with a 2314-M nib, and the other is a black LJ with Bell System Property imprinted on it. It has a 2668 nib. The LJ will be in proper working order because it comes from speerbob on eBay. The blue J, well the seller called the sac “bouncy”.

Sailor x Pent Sapporo in Saijiki Wisteria (light lavender-purple with silver and teal sparkle) and Music nib.

 

Super stoked. I've wanted a Sailor music nib for a while (I like stubs and CIs), and luckily for me it was the last one still available. It was going to be that or Extra Fine again, but EF was out of stock anyway. I'm a big fan of the whimsical sparkly Sailor special editions--treasuring my x Nagasawa Kobe Rosa Santica.

Natami Inception in what I'm going to call "bourgogne" (Platinum's name for the colour) and rose gold finish.

Looks like some kind of "Slip 'n Seal" spring loaded inner liner?

Love the faceted body...

And a very interesting art deco rose gold (coloured) steel nib design...

My three vac fill oversized balances back from repair from Ron Zorn

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

My first Stipula, a 'rare' transparent blue Passasorte, F nib.

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

It arrived 2 days ago - here are the naked pics of my Platinum 3776 Rokka. ;)
In its birthday suit!! As in un-inked.

No apologies for 8 (yes eight :wub: ) pics of this empty pen. Indulge me, ok? :D

I love the way that light plays in and out of the pen. Quite stunning!

(Doesn't look half bad with Yama-Budo in it, either!! But haven't taken the pics yet).
