Especially Cherished Inks

 

 

These are three of my favorites as well! Also enjoyed your display of the scented inks. I've been working so hard lately that I've hardly had time to write.

Thank you!

I'd wondered what had kept you largely away from FPN.

Those three inks are all reliable in nibs of various sizes.

Thank you for the scented ink writing samples Tom. I found them informative. I have enjoyed MB's history of scented inks, although they have certainly kicked it up a few notches in terms of volume and variety. Gone are the days of a single "Winter ink" special edition with Western European traditional holiday scents like pine treed or ginger bread cookies. They did make writing Christmas cards more enjoyable. Seems like people hardly write cards any more...

I appreciate your mentioning past Montblanc scented inks, which preceded my coming to Montblanc.

Pine tree scent?

Gingerbread cookie scent?

All of those sound appealing to me.

Yubi's Lunar New Year Card

 

 

 

Yubi is so much more handsome than the New Year's favor. I hope you enjoy the celebration! But please be careful. I understand the coronavirus is creating some real problems there.

Thank you Tom Kellie, for posting this. Wow! This looks really interesting. I like the "touch of pink". But I imagine it is probably really heavy because of the all the metal. And it is definitely out of my price range right now. Still it is a very nice looking pen.

Rainy Morning — Nasturtium Leaf with Nib

[DrDebG]

Lovely shot, Tom! Thank you for sharing it.

I prefer Yubi to the Webster

[DrDebG]

I am so excited! Soon, I will be able to join you all with a new BB nib on a Montblanc Great Characters John F. Kennedy in Blue! Our friends at Fritz Schimpf were able to locate one since this edition is no longer made and will not be made again. It is ordered, the new BB nib will be installed there and then it will be shipped to me. I can't wait and just had to share the news!

 

Thank you, Tom Kellie, for telling me about Fritz Schimpf!

Yubi feels flattered.

He feels that pink plumage may be a wee bit overrated.

Yubi is hoping for a lively fountain pen year.

Why?

Because anything which keeps me at my writing desk keeps me near to him.
