139 Demonstrator


Maxpens

Recommended Posts

The litle story began with some vintage transparent Celluloid parts I found years ago. So I was sure that 139 pens made from transparent Celluloid did exist. For a long long time I was thinking to finish this 139 to a completely demonstrator pen.

After a longer period of work I was able to finish this project. Made from original Celluloid of the 50´s

Yes Francis, this is the main problem, maybe you find modern Celluloid, but the vintage celluloid is hard to find.

Congratulations! That is a work of art (and science)! So they really made those demonstrators? I wonder if any original survived to this day?

In the beginning I wasn't sure - but now I have to say that it looks damn cool!

There are no facts, there is no truth - just a data to be manipulated...

      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..

      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

      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
