60S Platinum Pen Catalog?

Recommended Posts

Does anyone have a link to 1960s Platinum catalog please?

I need it to identify a pen I picked up on eBay and I absolutely adore. Its has the old Platinum logo so it was made before 1968 and its a pocket pen which means it was made after 1964. I am hoping to find it in an old catalog if I can get hold of one.

Hi, no there was no inlay and I don’t think it wore out. And yes cap really is different from other Platinum pocket pens.

Take a look here and click on '1968' - I believe that's the same pen in the image: https://www.platinum-pen.co.jp/100th_3/history.html

I have this same pen and I really like how it writes. While the nib is a nail the feel on the page is almost brush-like.

Also, I believe it is the same pen that Richard Binder identifies as a PK-1000 here: http://www.richardspens.com/ref/profiles/pocket_pens.htm

 

He writes that the PK-1000 pictured there was manufactured January 1968.

      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
