Lion Head/body Pens

[rmllaw]

SOS! In search of a pen, vintage or current, that has something to do with a lion. Can be a lions head on the cap or engraving of a lion on the writing tip, pen body, etc. More of a show piece that writing instrument. Any help in locating such a pen would be greatly appreciated. Robert

Just after the start of the year, they had an LE that was a reclining cat of some sort. Don't know if they still have it or if it was a lion. :embarrassed_smile:

A vintage Rupp nib has a lion's head.

 

Mine is Grand very "slightly flexible/'flexi'" F. Not though easy full flex.

My first of that category that I recognized.

Blade Runner,

I just recently bought a 150th. can you help me determine which nib size I have? Where is the marking on this very complex nib that indicates the nib size? Thanks.
