Well. I have a 6 month old little chihuahua. He's a good boy, very loving. Thankfully, my Ahab was cleaned before he found it. Now I have another one coming in the mail from Goulet's. Little devil. You can't be angry for very long, though.

Well I sort of went overboard this past week. I'm waiting on these now:

 

An old Delta that I bought on impulse not knowing much about it (waiting to see if Delta or Ercolessi can provide some info):

Five Chinese pens, none of which were over $3.25 (had some eBay bucks to blow):

Waiting for an MB 144 (80s), Pel M200 90s with Ramon Herzog signature engraved as souvenir hand-out, Dilli flex, Fend Norma Hex 4 color silver plate pencil, and Eversharp silver plate pencil (20s).

 

The MB 144 will give me a trio of at least the look of the 50s-60s: 32, 254, and 144,

 

The Pel 200 fills in 100 with Auch pencil, 100n (fluted) with Auch fluted pencil, 120, 130 Ibis, rappen, 140 with 350 pencil, 2 250s, and 2 400s with 450 pencils.. All nothing special, just representative examples of the time periods.

Waiting for the Franklin-Christoph Model 19 in Black/Red/Creme.

I have wanted one for a while and this looked like a one of a kind.

 

Can't wait!

And some cheap everyday pens for me to try:
Hero 448

Parker Vector + converter

Lamy Safari + converter

A clear TWSBI Vac 700 with a 1.1 stub. My first TWSBI and first vacuum filler. So excited!

Plus a pocket notebook, some pen maintenance supplies, and a few ink samples, because yeah... :-)

A Franklin-Christoph model 03 is being shipped my way.

This pen is clip-less, comes in basic black acrylic, with a maroon disc in-set on top of the cap.

The 03 mounts an HPS Broad Stub by Sailor's Nagahara-san.

 

The story goes that Mr Nagahara sat right next to Mike Masuyama during a recent pen show. Some of Mike's nibs intended for F-C pens were ground by Mr Nagahara.

I'm really looking forward to this elegant, understated pen with its Magahara nib.

Blueberry Nemosine Singularity with a Fine nib. Not that I'm buying any new pens for myself this month <cough>

Decided it was Lamy 2000 time, and ordered one from Goulet. Also a Pilot Metropolitan that's a gift for someone, in the lizard pattern with the bronze body. And some ink.

 

And then more ink from Diamine... Wheee!

The one I just learned I won in a contest. I know it's a ballpen and will be an inexpensive Faber Castell or Sheaffer model, but it is a lovely and unexpected surprise that I'm sure I'll find a use for.
