Hi anyone have an idea where to find boliden 14k nib for the above mentioned or a duro nib that would match the feed.

Boy, that's a pretty special request. Not a huge vintage contingent here, always a chance. If I were you, I'd try posting at PenTrace as well. Maybe at the "Fountain Pen Board", but sometimes it takes a while for them to approve membership (and posting threads). Best of luck!

Check your email, Chris.

We don't see a lot of svanstroms! Interesting pen. There's one listed in eBay at the moment with a buy it now price of £850!

That seems utterly insane to me.

Heh. "Original unrestored or cleaned condition". After all, another £15 out of your £850 is just too much to ask! At least postage is covered...
