I'm culling a good chunk from my collection this spring. Here are some more nice pens. There are some really nice nibs in here too.

 

All pens have been used but are in excellent+ to NM condition, and all have box and papers unless otherwise noted.

 

First email gets them, payment by Paypal or MO. Prices include insured USPS Priority Mail anywhere in the US. Overseas shipping at cost.

 

Feel free to email with any inquiries.

 

Sorry as always for the lousy pictures.

To answer a question I received via PM, the Aurora is a left oblique, like the Pelikan, so suited for use by right-handers...

What a great selection. The Aurora is so tempting.

 

Yeah it's a nice writer, too! Doesn't have too much of an angle, but gives a little variety to the line. Typically Aurora firm but smooth....

 

But of this lot it's the CP8 that's the best writer. The stub on that one is just a dream....

 

best,

Doug

That CP8 is a stunning looking pen my friend

I received a couple of questions today, which I figured I'd post answers to here- these probably should have been in the item descriptions....

 

#5. The CP8 is #41 of 250 pieces.

 

#6. The Delta Lugdunum comes with the original box which does include a bottle of ink and an eyedropper for filling.

 

Thanks!

Doug

The Optima is going for a good price! The nib is not my cup of tea though.

 

I hope the sale goes well Doug! :thumbup:

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      By Misfit · Posted

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @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
