I wrote letters today with these two:

 

1927 Parker Duofold Sr. filled with Private Reserve D.C. Supershow Blue

old style Omas Paragon filled with Omas Blue

 

Did ordinary daily writing chores with the pen that has been carried in my shirt pocket all day, a 1937 Parker Deluxe Challenger filled with Aurora Black.

I happened to score one of the few Galeria Kaufhof Pelikan M605s that were left here in Cologne.   B)

 

I loaded it with WM Florida Blue to get it going. I love it!!! May get the nib changed to F, though, since  it runs quite wide.

Today it was my Lamy Studio stainless with XF point and Lamy black ink, Pelikan M800 blue stripe fine point with Noodlers Texas Bluebonnet (a limited edition ink), and my Cross Affinity fine point with Cross black ink. A very cold day in Texas, but I felt warmer with these comfort pens.

My yellow M200 Pelikan with a M400 broad nib changed to a oblique italic stub by R. Binder! Ink today (in anticipation of St. Patrick's day being only 67 days away!) is Noodler's Hunter Green.

Keep on writing,

Today, I am not using any pens. No new inks either.lticaptd.gif

 

Whom am I kidding? My Laban Keiser glides like magic with my new Hero washable blue ink (a present from Doug Ad). Thanks Doug, you made my day!

Today, only an S.T. Dupont Olympio. For the past few month here at school, I've mainly been using the Olympio and a Nakaya Decapod. Occasionally a Montblanc 149 and an OMAS Paragon.
