Colibri Mickey Mouse cartridges?


Porkopolis

Recommended Posts

Hi Folks,

I am hoping you could help me with a Colibri brand fountain pen that came to me through my late father. I have the pen and the fountain pen tip section. I would like to get cartridges and possibly a cartridge converter and ink. I'm quite new to fountain pens and not sure if this pen needs branded equipment or can use universal items. If someone has one of these, I would really appreciate your advice and recommendations. I believe they did the same pen in other Disney characters as well. The pen's image is attached below.

Thank you! 😃

I collect Disney fountain pens and have a Colibri but not this one. You should be fine using a standard international ink cartridge. Let us know if you need help finding cartridges or how to use them. 
 

have fun and good luck!

Thank you, Mulrich,

I actually found the original box, which I did not know we still had knocking around. A spent international short cartridge was inside. I bummed one of those from a pal and it worked. 😊

Final Answer:    international short cartridges work

      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
