Hi there,

I need you help again in identifying this fountain pen, I fixed it last night, it is very nice and great writer (nib K&J). The nib and clip are replacement, but I could not find anything about this pen via Google search. I think it is 1920-30s. Lamy 2000 and MB 146 just for size comparison.

What's the nib say?

 

Could be a '30's German clone of a Parker Doufold.....

 

When Parker bought up Osmia in 1929 to make Doufolds for the German market....they were too expensive, in there were very many Clone makers already on the German market. Between lack of sales and the start of the Great Depression, Parker sold Osmia back to the Boehler brothers '29/30.

Lamy had been the director of Parker/Osmia.

 

A good picture of the nib might help.

In reference to P. T. Barnum; to advise for free is foolish, ........busybodies are ill liked by both factions.

It's an English 'Clone' then. Flat Tops became common.

There is a Conway Stewart 475M but in red and black hard rubber. Swan had a flat top too.

      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
