Morrison Pen Silver Pen / Pencil Set


Cotswold

Recommended Posts

My Father gave me this set many years ago, to sell. I was going through my bookcase today, and found the box.

 

I have tried to find out more about this set. I assume they are out of business, but, I have no idea how to list it on ebay or etsy or here to pass it on to someone who would appreciate it.

It's a Morrison Black Hard Rubber with silver basket-weave overlay pen and pencil set in the original box. The pen is in need of restoration. There is lead in the pencil. A good picture of the top and bottom of the nib would help. Is the nib flexible?

 

I've got the smaller, ringtop version of this set and it's a great writer.

 

Morrison was an American pen company that made good, 2nd tier pens in the 20's but the product quality deteriorated in the 30's and 40's and I think the company went out of business in the 50's. The WWII Patriot models are collectable.

5 years of guarantee and the date hasn't been filled in, effectively then it is still under guarantee! lol

      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
