Up for consideration is a brand new, never used, special edition Pelikan M150 Günther Wagner, which was produced in 2002 only. The Wagner edition was commissioned to celebrate the origins of Pelikan, and sports a 19th century-inspired box/ink bottle, with the original Pelikan labels and guarantee. The pen itself is of the “old style,” having an engraved Pelikan logo on the cap, as opposed to the more modern silk screened variant.

For reference, Günther Wager was one of the major players in the creation and organization of Pelikan. Many look upon him as the figure behind the fledgling pen company that would become a worldwide standard of quality and innovation.

I have seen many M605 Wagners, but never another M150. Given the competitive price of this M150 set when new, plus the inclusion of ink, it is my belief that most Wagner M150's were used as writers, and have subsequently fallen by the wayside. I can’t emphasize enough how rare this set is to begin with, let alone one that is new in box, with all labels and seals still affixed.

All of the above considered, I’m letting this one go at less than current M150/4001 ink retail prices. Montgomery Pen, which is the only American distributor to stock the M150, is charging $56 for a standard M150, $13.50 for a standard 50 mL bottle of Pelikan 4001 ink, and $10 for shipping (i.e.: $79.50). My price on this special edition M150/ink combo is $65. (≈Reduced≈)

Price = $65 (≈Reduced≈)

Shipping

Shipping to the continental US is $6 (slightly more than usual because the ink adds some weight). International shipping is quoted upon request, but an average for a package of this size/weight should fall around $15-$25 to most locations.

Ordering Process

I only accept checks or money orders from active members with whom I've had discourse in the past.

My preferred payment method is via PayPal. If you'd like this pen, please send an "I want it" private message, with your PayPal email address mentioned in the body. For a number of reasons, it’s easier for me to send a PayPal invoice as opposed to receiving payment direct.

Once the invoice is sent, the pen is effectively held for 24 hours. If, in 24 hours, the invoice hasn't been paid, it will be canceled and I will send an invoice to the next buyer in line.

Should you have any questions, don't hesitate to drop me a line.

The Wagner edition was commissioned to celebrate the origins of Pelikan, and sports a 19th century-inspired box, with the original Pelikan labels and guarantee, and a limited edition ink with the same design applied to the bottle.

For reference, Günther Wager was one of the major players in the creation and organization of Pelikan at its inception. Many look upon him as the figure behind Pelikan.

I have seen many M605 blue demonstrator Wagners, but never another M150.

Julio,

This is not a demonstrator, but a black "old style" M150.

Julio,

This is not a demonstrator, but a black "old style" M150. What separates this 150 from other "old style" 150's is the LE packaging and the LE ink.

Really nice, thank you for the photos, but not for me,
