I am not so sure which model this is. I found it without any box or packaging at local pen store in Pune.

 

The pen costs around $13post-80966-0-66922600-1346741341.jpg

This is called the Pilot "Superior" IIRC. BTW which shop did you buy this from in Pune? It used to cost 230/-Rs once upon a time, I have several.

Darn!! I paid 13$ for a 4$ pen!!

I bought it from Shweta enterprises at ABChowk. Near Venus Traders.

When I had reached Venus traders they didnt have much of a fountain pen collection. Not even simple Airmail pens.

 

Long ago I had seen this post https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php?/topic/59429-pilot-ultra-super-500/

 

I thought may be these pens are so valuable.

 

:P LOL

Thanks, I know that shop. Sorry to hear about Venus. During my time, they were the best stocked shop in terms of inks and fountain pens. Also check out President Stationers at Raviwar peth. It has been a long time since I have moved out of Pune.

 

BTW the supers had gold nibs, this one is a steel nib.

 

Best

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film.

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
