I believe your brushed chrome Sheaffer is a 2444 from the 1990s. If it has a long inlaid nib, it's the 2444; a short arrowhead or "dunce cap" inlaid nib means it's a 444 from the 1970s-1980s. The cap clip looks longer than my 444, though, so my money is on a 2444.

A lot of these are Noodler's pens (my favorite brand). There is a Pilot Custom 823 (my favorite pen), a Cross Century, some TWSBIs, a Parker, a Pelikan, two Sailors, and two Chinese pens.

That glass dip pen is beautiful.

 

Also, adore that blue quill. I see a lot of whites and blacks, but not patterned ones. The nib looks gorgeous too!

What a beautiful collection. How long did it take for you to find all those pens and hopefully service them to working condition?

 

 

here's some of mine, and most of the rest you can find in my signature wink.gif

hi, this is my tiny collection (with just one fountain pen) :). I just love the older Rotring 600 / Newton pens. I fell in love with those the first time i saw one on a picture in the internet next to a BRAUN DESIGN watch (6 months ago). It was damn hard to get these "axes" for reasonable prices but i had a lucky hand.

My Parker 45 family.

 

 

You really do have a lot of Parker's! Although my favourite has to be the Vector that looks like it came out from the A to Z.

 

Here are some of my pens:

 

http://i1332.photobucket.com/albums/w614/GabrielleduVent/DSC_0259_zps6bad6403.jpg?t=1371094407 My MB, two Preppies, Plaisir, and a Lamy Safari demonstrator.

http://i1332.photobucket.com/albums/w614/GabrielleduVent/DSC_0263_zps6b2f8531.jpg?t=1371094505 This pen saw a little more use while my mate and I were away from each other.

 

Pens tell a story of their own, don't they?

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o
    • adamselene
      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
