Hi, I live in Holland and am a pen collector since I was 16 years of age ( I am 42 now).

I am following this site for serveral months and made a couple of messages in which I asked for a MB 149, MB Boheme Big Size, Pelikan m800 etc. I have several very nice writers e.g. : CP5 Modern with a #88 nib, a CP7 with a music nib, Danitrio raw ebonite with a stub nib, a MB 146P with a medium nib, a couple of Duofolds, Bexley Poseidon LE Parkville in Jungle Green with a stub nib, Conway Stewart Nelson red-blue swirl with a medium italic nib etc. etc. On its way is a Pel 805 with a BB nib and a Duofold with a medium cursive italic nib.

I like the music nibs from Sailor the most (they have a good flow and nice line variation) but for my writing the nib is a little bit too wide. The Jungle Green of Bexley Poseidon Parkville color is very nice, but the pen is too small for my hands. I don't like writing with the cap posted.

Allthough I own this pens I am still looking for that most perfect pen. I like the size of the MB 149 or the MB Boheme Big size and I am still searching for this one with a B-nib.

My collection is dynamic (I buy and sell pens). I have bought and sold a lot through the bay. My Ebay member name is Slied013.

If you like big and broad, very well made and with some wieght take a look at XEZO. The Maestro series fits the bill but they are true LEs and are getting harder to find all the time.
