They are traveling ink bottles in bakelite... marbled brown-redish, very practical when traveling.

They were hard too find but some were offered through e bay recently and I could not resist them.

So they are probably vintage, right? These days for travelling I use the 30ml bottles which come with diamine inks.

Everything is impermanent.

Dare I say, a rather patriotic content. :)

Indeed, based on quality/price ratio.

:rolleyes:

I did a little effort. Here is diamine Teal in a 80ml Diamine bottle. The pen is a M205 Pelikan. The notebooks are muji for the small one and I can't read the name of the other one (it's in japanese...).

I'll admit to having bought two bottles of these inks just for the bottle. The red was so lousy, I refused to use it in a pen or share it. The purple had interesting sheen, but is a stainer.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

What a beautiful vintage collection!

 

Some biscuits? Yum-yum!

In most cases there are only sewing accessories in these, but this is even better than biscuits :lol:

I see a fantastic Pelikan travelling inkwell with a Pelikan 112 in a marvellous giftbox!!!

 

Would it be too much asked to post an additional picture of this? I have never seen one like this.

To be honest, I don't have seen any Pelikan gift boxes in real life at all. I only have a vintage advert of a different gift box.

JeanManuel,

The spherical bakelite bottles are from the early thirties...

 

brgmarketing,

Your bottles are simply delicious...!!!

 

Kawuska,

Jealous of your advertisement of the prewar Pelikan Gdansk offer !!!

 

Christof,

Originally the box was not in very good shape but a friend who knows about restoration made a pretty good job.

Yours are not bad at all, more boxes will come to you since you keep on looking for them...

Here are a couple of images....

Best, Ariel

That is one amazing set there!

 

I haven't taken a photo of my new Sailor beauties yet, but here is a little Pelikan art work I've found online:

      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!
    • inkstainedruth
      @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.
