Swan Engraving Tester Pen?


Recommended Posts

Here is a nightmare for those who don't like engraved pens.

 

Two cap imprints

L. R. Stuber

J.A.H.

Barrel imprints:

Margalet Shaft (yes, margaLet)

Richard H. O'Connell

Leo Suhul Day (opposite direction

The pen imprint, with perhaps M. L. Evans over it

Richard H. O'Donnell

(lower half only, so guessing - ) John L. Krehbiel

Margaret Shaft (spelled better this time!)

 

I will be making another post on this pen for its other features.

Excellent! Interesting find.

 

No excuse for not getting your own name added to the list - anti-engraving or not!

 

Enjoy.

Yes why not join the crowd eh?

 

I have an Osmia 884 engraved, very appropriately, "Ilsa Schreiber" What better name for a fountain-pen owner?

Hello:

I don´t like names on my pens but your pen has an history to tell. It is like a family tree.

Nice.

Regards.

 

PD. This is a real nightmare:

      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

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

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
