Can this damaged Pelikan 100 be repaired? If so, can it be repaired seamlessly? What would be the cost? Thanks for your help.

Most cost effective repair would be to replace the broken barrel.

I'm definitely going to report back once my friend tests his process on it. I don't see a downside since it is scrap in the current condition anyway. I'm hoping it works and if so, then I will share it here.

The fact that the barrel is broken doesnt mean the pen is scrap. As others have mentioned, Pelikan 100 replacement barrels are available. There is a FPN member that sells these. On the other hand the feed doesnt look original. How is the nib?

 

I really hope you can get this vintage pen working again! :thumbup:

      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.
