The litle story began with some vintage transparent Celluloid parts I found years ago. So I was sure that 139 pens made from transparent Celluloid did exist. For a long long time I was thinking to finish this 139 to a completely demonstrator pen.

After a longer period of work I was able to finish this project. Made from original Celluloid of the 50´s

Yes Francis, this is the main problem, maybe you find modern Celluloid, but the vintage celluloid is hard to find.

 

kind regards

Congratulations! That is a work of art (and science)! So they really made those demonstrators? I wonder if any original survived to this day?

In the beginning I wasn't sure - but now I have to say that it looks damn cool!

There are no facts, there is no truth - just a data to be manipulated...

      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

      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.

      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. 😺

      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.
