P.W.Akkerman sale on vintage Montblancs

Recommended Posts

I received an email from P.W.Akkerman Den Haag announcing they will be selling various older Montblancs.

Breathe. Take one step at a time. Don't sweat the small stuff. You're not getting older, you are only moving through time. Be calm and positive.

I get their emails because I was part of a group buy from them a few years ago.  Mizgeorge's link gets you to the pens on their site.

Including a mint Hemingway! I'm surprised it hasn't gone already.

 

It has. I sniped it within like an hour of receiving the e-mail. Can't wait! Now I just have to sell off a bunch of other pens to make up for the financial hit....

Congrats. Of course you have, who else. I am quite envious of your collection by now, even for just the few pieces I know you have...I was looking at the Hemingway and hesitated on it, it's a lot of money, but at least now I can sleep better knowing it's going to good hands.

Thanks :)

It's nothing really special, though, compared to some of the good folks here who really got the goods. I'm sorry to have beat you to the Hemingway this time - there'll be another popping up somewhere I'm sure.

Received my Faulkner over the weekend. Looks wonderful. Will ink it and try it out soon.

Congratulations! I have had a Faulkner for a number of years. Very stylish and dependable writer.

Waffling between Voltaire, Dostoyevsky, and saving over $1000...

 

I would love to pick up that Cervantes set, but I also have a MB calligraphy coming too

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
