I've got a Schiller on the way to me. This seems to be one of the less popular WE's. I think I got a solid deal--$600 has box and papers. The clip is what really drew me to this pen.

Nice! If you don't mind my asking, where did you find one? I'd love to get one someday when I have $600 to spare. I'm waiting for a Starwalker rubber/metal fp--one of my all-time grail pens. The nib is nothing to note, but I'm crazy about its design, and can't wait for it to arrive.

That's what I imagined...I occasionally check them there out of curiosity. Got my starwalker on ebay too, I just hope it's real! The price feels real, but now would have paid a bit more for peace of mind about it...

I am still looking to expand my collection of 144/classique sized pens. Latest acquisition is a signature for good classique. At first glance it seems relatively ordinary classique styled pen...

However, closer inspection of the cap reveals a small sapphire (not shown in these pics and rather less bling than a diamond), and some rather nice detail on the cap..

The detail represents bricks in a wall. Which is relevant to the project MB is running with UNICEF to provide charitable housing. MB donate £10 to their charity each time one of these pens is sold :)

Got a Agatha Christie F nib no box or papers sitting in customs(chicago) right now. Very happy about this one- sold my Christie a few years back and I've regretted it every day since. Strange- it is the only pen I've sold that I've regretted( and I've sold a lot).

Congrats on the Agatha and Schiller. I quite like the Schiller myself. I actually have 2, one to use and one completely sealed.

 

You must have a nice pen budget this year!

I received my F nib Agatha Christie from Lutz at penboard.de and it is an absolutely fantastic pen. I love the way my handwriting looks with this pen. It is so enjoyable. Now I need to find a Hemingway.

A nice little monterosa with a very smooth steel nib, i think it´s from the fifties (but i´m not sure).

A LeGrand Signature for Peace, my first ever Ebay Montblanc ! Won it Monday Evening, for a nice price,just arrived. I am beginning to like my 146smoe and more.Apologies for the pictures, using natural light and it is grim here :( It looks in very nice condition, the piston is as smooth as sliding on ice,but the clip looks a little duller than my others.Came with the original boxes and the guarantee booklet fully stamped from a shop in Stuttgart.

Started myself a little Boheme collection with a few lucky bids on a certain internet marketplace.

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast. 
    • Ceilidh
      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺
    • Mercian
      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
