    Dunno bout the misidentified pen, but I bet the case at the top is a FC Penvelope, LOL. Neat post, thanks!

    Oooo, I went weak at the knees! Have no idea what the misidentified pen is but they are all lovely! I especially love the Edison/Shin pens, that grey one is amazing!

  • Quinden

    I think that tiny flute is not going to the Limit, if you know what I mean ;)

    All are beautiful, but I especially like the brown & green, which I plan on getting…someday….

  • Tamara

    My, those musical instruments can be confusing ;)

  • Brian Gray

    Love that safety!

  • ethernautrix

    The name of the misidentified pen is in conflict with itself: don’t know whether to blow or suck.

    That Waterman Safety is gorgeous with the metal rings!

  • Maja

  • Fntnpencrazy

    If the gentleman is a Statesman, is he in-fact an Australian? I believe an Australian Statesman exists, certainly there were Valiant Australians.
