Has anyone ever heard of an Adler brand fountain pen ??

What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about?

Earlier this year there was a topic about Osmia 648 in this same forum

During the post exchanges I showed an image (it should be there) of a German Adler (Max Adler & Co, Berlin) and some of the replies gave good information.

It is a pen manufactured by Osmia.

 

Regards

This one is made in the USA. I'm sure it's the Adler Pen and Pencil Company.

I know this thread is several years old, but I just joined the forum over the weekend and stumbled across this post.

 

Adler Pen & Pencil Co. was founded in New York in 1933 by my great-grandfather, Harry Adler. According to my uncle, who took over the business, the name "Adler" was never put on any of the pens from the company. He was a "middle man" and would import and craft the pens for his clients with their company names on them. If you ever find a pen with the name "Adler" on it made in the USA, it is actually from the European pen company and not really from the USA. So, if your pen says "Adler/USA" on it, it is most likely European in origin and definitely not from the NY-based Adler Pen & Pencil Co. in question

 

Hope this helps!

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
