A new member joined the Relief family today in a package from England. A couple weeks ago was the Bloomsbury auction in London and three nice Relief pens were auctioned. I brought home one, ironically one of two whose description cited not being mentioned on my website.



The Family from top down:

Big Daddy 3-S in lapis
Mamma 2-L in Blue Marble
Big Brother 5-L in Blue and copper
Baby girl 22-L in Blue marble (the new one)

Blue Copper Big Brother is one of the most beautiful pens I've ever seen Brian (next to my Yellow Cracked Ice, that is).

Congrats!

Ahhhh.........................
These are gorgeous


Except a 5-L with a broken cap (but all other parts are good) I do not have a single one of them.

The plastic on the 3-S looks quite different than the 2-L/22-L.

Enjoy them - they are are the right place

Baby Girl is cute! Congratulations! All of those are gorgeous!

Very nice, but I can't help but notice that baby girl is fatter than big bro... what's going on ????

yeah, maybe it should be little sister and baby brother. Oh well, they're all related.

I guess I should explain, the 22-L is the short stubby Relief (obviously), but it also came as a ringtop version with no clip. I've seen only slightly more ringtops than clipped versions, but I've not seen many over the years. They are not common.

It's one of the few I hadn't yet acquired. Now I'm down to needing a 22-L ringtop, a model 4 (anyone?), and 7, but that's just off the top of my head.
