Still using the Franklin Christoph model 66, today filled with J Herbin 1670 Bleu Océan.

Attika89 - go with the Lamy. 😜 I know you asked for support, but the Lamy is the more interesting of the two pens. The desk scene is great with the pocket watch.

Mabie Todd & Co. Swan 2060, 14k Eternal No. 6

 

What yellow was used with that Swan? I've been trying to find a yellow that's dark enough to actually write with.

I would guess Rohrer & Klingner Helianthus.

R&K Helianthus - a great ink. Also similar and worth finding is 1970s/1980s vintage Sheaffer Kings Gold - it comes in small bottles and can occasionally be found on that certain auction site.

 

Edited to add - Ptero, great guess! You posted while I was typing and were spot on!

This is a fascinating thread! It's also inspiring.

However, it might also be dangerous . Within a few recent posts, I saw my TOP TWO (current, at least) NIBS. Wow! Now, I am looking for ways to buy at least one of them. Well, not really, but it's fun to dream

Esterbrook SM DeLuxe

 

Bought almost died... Fossilized ink sac and stucked with oil-based golden ink...

I've restored, removing the golden stains, changing the ink sac and fitting a new nib (#9668, of course...). Finally results:
