This FP was made as an LE by Cross to celebrate its 150th anniversary. It has a very smooth 18k gold nib; it is marked medium and writes like a Pelican med (rumor is that Pelikan made the nibs). It is a cartridge convertor filler and comes complete with beautiful American walnut box, walnut pen tray, crystal ink-well, unopened bottle of ink, all papers, etc. In excellent condition. This is a magnificent piece of craftsmanship as well as a great pen. $525 includes shipping cost in USA. Outside of USA shipping is at actual cost.

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
