What a lovely collection! The nib of the 90th anniversary is my favorite!

Nice - I have also recently acquired another 146!

 

I'm guessing they are both 'real'?

I got a set of Dumas son from the auction site for what I think is a "reasonable" price.

Will ink the FP today with a known ink so I do not have 2 new variables ( new pen + new ink) and in that way I can be sure that the pen performs well...or not.

I recently got this 149, it is supposed to be wintage. Nib shows 14K and cap has inscription W. GERMANY. What can be said about this pen? I do not see any inscriptions on. the underside of the clip.

  Those are also very beautiful, from what I’ve seen on here in passing, your collection looks spectacular. I hope you find them soon.

Thank you! Those two rarely come up for sale. So I will need to keep my eye open all the time :)

Please,  does the gear work? That is it turns the bottom of the barrel and the gear rotates?

Unfortunately it doesn’t :( That would have been an excellent idea and you would end up looking at a pen that Montblanc would retail at over £100K!

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      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!

      @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
