For once, none.

two came in today. Both semi-flex.

Ransom Bucket cost me many of my pictures taken by a poor camera that was finally tossed. Luckily, the Chicken Scratch pictures also vanished.

A black Waterman Phileas with 14k nib.

 

A green striped Waterman's Ideal 14k nib. I have no idea of the model but I believe it's Canadian.

 

There is also a striped Wearever with matching cap and a 14k nib, plus, a couple of new Sheaffer School pens, both demonstrators, to go with the three coloured School Pens I received this last week.

 

Then there is a mystery pen with a clip logo, three arrows gathered in the middle and fanned, black and ivory body and cap, with a warranted 14k nib.

 

Finally, there is the AVON yellow marble lever filler. The seller notes the nib is marked " Packard 14KT Made in Amer. but it looks like the nib entering the body says GOLD PlATED, I'll find out soon enough when it arrives. It looks like a nice pen despite the nib.

 

I've been 'bottom feeding' on ebay this month and this include a brown Sheaffer #33, a black Sheaffer Balance Military Clip with numbered 14k Feather Touch nib, and a black Sheaffer Touchdown filler with a big, beautiful open 14k nib, among the many cheap pens I've bought.

MB 100 Year "Historical" Pen, which I can't wait to get hold of.

 

C-S Churchill, lever filler, with Italic Fine nib. I thought this one was in stock, but apparently has been back-ordered, so I'm losing hair at an alarming rate waiting... (I don't think I'm being "bespoken" on it, but I could be wrong.... :mellow: )

The things you own end up owning you. It's only after you lose everything you're free to do anything.

I kind of went on a vintage Sheaffer spree. I've never been a huge Sheaffer fan, but for some reason I was drawn to these pens and I'm super-excited about them! I'm waiting on two oversized Flat-tops and a brown-stripe Tucky.
