Hello everyone from New Jersey! I spent 20 plus years in the pen retail industry,

I look forward to discussing collecting and will eventually use the classifieds to thin out my extensive collection.

I just found not one but two of the Mont Blanc Diary and Collectors' guides. I forgot I even had them!

Have a good day! :)

Greetings and welcome!

...The history, culture and sophistication; the rich, aesthetic beauty; the indulgent, ritualistic sensations of unscrewing the cap and filling from a bottle of ink; the ambient scratch of the ink-stained nib on fine paper; A noble instrument, descendant from a line of ever-refined tools, and the luster of writing,
with a charge from over several millennia of continuing the art of recording man's life.

Hello and welcome from Cape Town, South Africa.

To sit at one's table on a sunny morning, with four clear hours of uninterruptible security, plenty of nice white paper, and a [fountain] pen - that is true happiness!

It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere.

I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
