Hello to all,

 

Recently I purchased two fountain pens at local flee market.

One of them is Sphinx with 14kt gold plated nib, other one is Panther with Matador No. 3 steel nib.

I am never heard about this brands/producers, so I will be happy if someone have more historical data about this pens and if someone knows aprox. value of this two pens.

 

Thank you in advancepost-124563-0-03838500-1439831779_thumb.jpg

Sphinx is likely a German vintage pen, and the Panther, because of the Matador nib, probably French.

 

However, that is all the information I have. Maybe someone else can help?

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      @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.
