My psychiatrist tells me I need one of these. In this instance I definitely agree. B nib.

This one has a history.

 

 

The pen was bought in Hannover at a Trade Fair in 1947 by an English Serviceman stationned in Hannover, he used the pen on a daily basis. I met him in 2010 and bought the pen, it was a wreck, it didn't work, wrong nib, a complete mess.

 

The pen went to Francis who built the pen, every single part needed attention. As you would expect, the workmanship was superb.

My favourite pen, always a delight to see another 236. Congratulations!

Good to see another 236. I am lucky to have 2. One is the telescoping piston and the other is a single stage piston. The latter needs the hand of Brad Torelli because the piston is stuck. But both are marvelous. Enjoy yours!

Beautiful built to stand the test of time

Lovely pen. I like the the telescopic piston very much. I have a 232, all the same just smaller. Also a soft bouncy nib with a bit of italic flair.
