Here's my tiny flock with the M605 Stresemann being the latest addition.

Late last week I took delivery of this beauty (M900 Toledo):

 

 

Earlier today my wife received the M600 Green/White:

 

 

A couple of comparison pics  below, with an M400 Green/Black and the other M600 white.

 

 

 

And here is Hamlet approving the Toledo:

 

How about the Green one? "Hmm, not  so sure dad!"  

 

 

Came for the pens, stayed for the adorable, fluffy dog.

Pet him for me. My household really feels short a species now.

What a nice surprise!

 

Big thanks to Hamlet for his walk-on cameo above.

 

His natural enthusiasm looks great!

I'm so sorry. Keke wishes you could pet him, too:

Is this thread about pens or dogs?

Pens, dogs, and Pelikans, as far as I can tell. Maybe someone needs to start a new topic.

You mean it's not about a flock of dogs?

I’m pretty sure the internet is primarily just an adorable pet picture database. Pens and all other topics are just minor diversions. 😉

Will do.

I hope you get a furry friend soon. 

They change our lives in such a positive way!!

Good to hear form you, Tom!

Hamlet now has a little sister, Wendy.

 

Hamlet and Wendy say "woof, woof" to Yubi! 🙂

Wow! Toledo is gorgeous, my congratulations!

And a little bit of my new pen... Not as beautiful but historic.

Congratulations! Alexey.

 

It looks like model 100 (ca.1936) for German market with K(M?) nib.

Is that right❓

Exactly. This particular pen was made after September, 1936 (nib size near the turning knob) but before logo change (4 to 2 chicks) in 1937.

Chickens? Chickens! And here people are giving me a hard time about dogs.

 

🙂

 

PS Beautiful pen!

[Uncial]

I will never see the chicks in quite the same way again.

Nice green on that barrel.

Nope, that's the wrong venery term....  Now don't go asking me what the CORRECT term is, because I'm not sure where my book on the subject has got to (it's a lovely book where someone found as many medieval and medieval-oid terms as possible, and it's called An Exultation of Larks).
