I found this picture while doing some cleaning up... I thought you (and others) might like it.

Thanks Keith,
Beautiful shot. And to think that I now own one of those babies I put a NN italic nib on it and I can assure you I won't ever sell it or trade it or give it away

Are they some No Nonsense variants?

Cam,

Those are the marbled versions of the No Nonsense that are trimmed in 23k plated hardware, the nibs are also gold plated.

Sad that Sheaffer stopped making these as for $15.00 (Cdn) they were quite the exceptional value and a really attractive pen.

Cheers!

I got a couple from you, Keith, (blue marbled and black) a while back & they are gorgeous---thanks, Keith! Jim, in his Penhero.com article on NoNonsense pens, says they are the "Vintage" NoNonsense model...

Which one did you get Karin, Green or Pink ?

Enquiring minds want to know
I got the green one. Green is my favourite colour for a pen. It all has to do with a dream I had once.................. :ph34r:

Let me guess : You dreamt that : You signed a receipt for a lottery winning with a green pen ? You signed a peace treaty with a green pen ?

I wish I had signed a peace treaty. Actually, it was a really neat dream. First, I dreamed that I was in the basement of a house that i was going to buy and the previous owners had left all of their library in the bookshelves. I was amazed and excited. Then I found an old journal. It was written in green ink. I knew that it was something very special. A few nights later, I dreamed about the green pen that looked a lot like the one that Keith sent me. It was a Shaeffer! Those dreams had a lot to do with my finally writing something that was important to me. And it also had a lot to do with buying all the pens that I have, and making all of the friends that I've made. Wonderful dreams.

nice story Karin. Are you trying to get us emotional ? Let me balance that : We are all friends until we meet on EBay, bidding on the same pen

Wazza matter Denis,
Can't you take some good ole fashioned friendship Btw, what's your ebay handle LOL

11th commandment : "Thou shall not bid against drichardni"

Apply to all confession

12th commandment...

"Thou shalt not bid against drichardni unless thy name is Keith"

Not that I would of course.

Cheers!
