What a lovely photo! Thanks for posting it.

MontBlanc Dumas, still with MB burgundy and a Borteletti dip pen with MB Lavender. Envelope and card is from Crane & Co.

 

I was testing out my 85mm f/1.4G Nikkor lens at f/1.4 again! :happyberet:

A Virginia Woolf I picked up yesterday on sale.

 

I found the modern M nib to be B, compared to all my vintage pens. Which is what I mostly have.

 

I was after a B nib as was, so the modern M, is what I wanted, the size of a vintage B.

I did like the solid gold subdued bling of the nib.

 

 

My top pen is a MB 234 1/2 Deluxe (52-55 only) KOB nib.

 

The nib is nice, smooth and springy.

I doubt if it will ever make it into my top ten nibs.

 

The pen was first time seen, in the Brick and Mortar and it said, Buy Me...so I did. I liked the machine tooling.

I have other chased pens.

 

So odd, I said a couple of years ago. "No more black pens" and 15 of the last 20 have been black pens. :headsmack:

In reference to P. T. Barnum; to advise for free is foolish, ........busybodies are ill liked by both factions.

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

The cheapest lessons are from those who learned expensive lessons. Ignorance is best for learning expensive lessons.

Here's a quick shot of the new silver Barleycorn. It's a beauty--a very elegant pen and the medium nib glides like silk. This fountain pen beckons turquoise ink so Pelikan it is! Incidentally, the mother-of-pearl star is not adequately captured in this photo but it's a classic stroke of design brilliance by Montblanc.

 

I don't often compliment people on their photos. This is beautiful though.

 

My goal is to start collecting sterling silver pens (including this one) once I've completed my WE quest. Unfortunately we are a few years away from getting one. Truely gorgeous.

that he does not know until he takes up his pen to write.
