I have a modern Parker Sonnet in matte black with a stainless steel fine nib that I would consider trading in part for the Pelikan, if you're interested. Of course, I'm happy also to simply pay all cash for your Pelikan.
This pen would be going to a passionate, enthusiastic, respectful new owner who promises to take excellent care of it and ensure its safety and well-being for many, many years
Thanks for your consideration.
Johnny B.
