OK, this shouldn't be too hard if you are into modern pens. The first one is very easy... then the 3rd one is not one you see everyday though... I think.

See, I like other pens too... I don't just have one track "Maki-e" mind. :lol:

Nice pens, Kevin!

My guesses:

(1) Visconti Skeleton

(2) Sheaffer Commemorative Ltd. Edition (did you Photoshop out the White Dot? ;) )

(3) a big Italian Ltd. Edition of some sort :)

Hi Maja,

 

You got the first one right

You also got the 2nd one right, but what year?

You are on the right tract for 3rd. ;) It is by a smaller Italian pen company. The pen is a discountinued model, but both Pam Braun and FPH carry this brand (but not this pen) Enough hint ;)

OK, the number 3 is by Ferrari... but what model? ;)

 

Kev

The "Aura" model?

(and here I thought most Ferrari pens were red! :lol: )

You are the winner!!! Thanks for playing. Since you are the only one played, email me your address, and I'll send you a little surprise ;) no joke.

Awww, shucks....That is so nice of you, Kev :blush:

I sent you a couple of e-mails via the FPN e-mail system....speaking of which, is it possible to tell if an e-mail has been read or not, like we can with PMs?

Just curious.......

I am afraid you can't track an e-mail as you can with PM. PM would be the preferred method of communication here but there is a limit to the number of messages you can keep which you are unlikely to exceed in a short time unless your messages are graphic intensive. When that happens, you will need to clear old messages you no longer need. Just as you would with your e-mail programmes :D

Thanks Kev, that is very kind of you. It is not a requirement or condition of course. Just that it would be more fun if more members participated ;) I may conduct a few quiz myself :) Yes, 150 will make a nice community but if only more of them will come out of lurk mode :rolleyes: I hope the popularity of this site will get to a stage where we can see a new member register everyday. I would be very satisfied when that happens :D

      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
