Hi,

I'm new to the forum. I have several pens not listed.

Suprema, piston filer looks like a Pelikan 120, it's from the 60's I used it in elementary school. Maybe Portuguese made.
Skater, a late 60's copy of a Parker 75. Aerometric filler.
Creeks N' Creeks, an 80's low price pen. Impressive big nib. Cartridge.
Weli, piston filler, probably Portuguese.
Walker, a black plastic cartridge pen very low end market, early 80's.
Crest, Japanese, early 70's Sheaffer and Parker look alike. Aerometric filers.
President, maybe Japanese or Chinese, aerometric filer. Late 70's.
Labor, Portuguese piston filler, early 70's.
Pierre Dumont, 80's cartridge filer, German nib.
Enzo Varini, 90's cartridge filer, German nib but bought it new in Paris.
RUP, lever filer, Portuguese 50's. My grandfather owned this brand of low market pens. Ended production in the mid 60's.
Chronist, piston filer, another Pelikan 120 look alike from my elementary school days, late 60's probably Portuguese.

Hope this helps to make the list grow.

Cheers.

I was told that a member of the Dallas Pen Club, who has a collection numbering around 3,500 pens, has, as part of his collection, he has a section with 2,500 different brands of pen.

I purchased on E-Bay an "ELF", which is a pen made for Edwards, Ludwig and Fuller a Kansas City, Missouri jewelry store. The pen is a chased BHR, c1920. The seller claimed a connection to Waterman. The nib appears to be a Waterman, but it could have been installed later.

Goldring-Achat

I have a Goldring Achat that appears to be a Pelikan 400 knock-off. It is a piston filler. I do not know the country of origin.

I hope that this one hasn't been posted already.

I think I own an exact replica of the MYAWADI pen shown - will check and revert!

Craftsman (actually marked 'Craftsman No. 2')

Not the Sheaffer one but a sub-brand of the English maker Wyvern. I'll try and organise a picture along with the comparable marked Wyvern to show it's parentage.

Cheers

The jade green one above is clearly marked Wyvern whilst the blue/gold one which shares the same arrow lever (typically Wyvern) and the same torpedo shaped cap is clearly marked Craftsman.
