And it confirm my thoughts (That the 149 is not a lot longer than the 146 but that the difference is mainly in the girth) and i didn't thought the difference of lenght was so short between the 142 and the 144...

I saw the Jinhao MSG series:

 

(l - r) 159 with beef

 

156 with pork

 

154 with chicken

 

152 with tofu

I didn't want to be a pig about it so I ordered the beef and chicken with wonton soup and steamed rice.

what I would like to see is a line up of:

114, 142, 144, 145, 146 (old) 146 (new), 147 and 149

that would be a complete set, wouldn't it??

Enjoy your pens

Have a nice day

I do not have all of the variations, but this might give you an idea. Left to right: 114, 142, 144, 145, 146 (early 80's), 146 (modern), 147.

When I purchased my 147 Traveler, I was expecting it to be the same size as my newish 146. However, to my surprise, it is noticeably larger in all dimensions, a very nice substantial sized and writing pen. I do note that it was billed as a 'fine', by my knowledgeable seller, but to my eye it closer to a medium. Not complaining, just saying.

Once again I am confirmed in my belief that I do not need a 149, this is big enough. I agree with a previous poster, it would be nice to see a comparison photo of the full family of pens, maybe grouped by era.

 

PS- Looking at orfew's photo, maybe my 146 is a NOS pen from the '80s, not a modern one.

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film. It is a specific film that produces transparencies, or slides, by a process not used for any other film. There are other color trans

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
