Here are seven solid, usable pens for sale. All under $200 (except the OMAS set).

PLEASE NOTE: I will sell any pen to the first person who makes a firm committment. An expression of interest or asking questions does not hold a pen for you. I am more than happy to send you as many pictures as you want to see and answer any questions I can answer. Please just PM me your email for more photos.

#1 – Bexley for Gaston Winter Wonderland SOLD

#2 – Franklin Christoph Model 02 clipless in Italian Ice SOLD

#3 – Stipula Etruria Rainbow in clear resin. SOLD

#4 – Taccia Celestial Pearl (bright orange) pen with a beautiful mother of pearl barrel. The MOP is coated and smooth to the touch so you can use it without concern. The pen and a #6 steel nib of M width that I had Dan Smit ground to a CI. The nib is stiff but has good line variation. An unusual pen that is quite large, but not too heavy. Not for shy wallflower types! No box or papers. Price shipped in the US is $175.

#5 - Omas Milord (old style) FP and BP set. Plain black resin with gold trim. A pleasure to use, but he FP is just a little too small for me. The nib is a smooth 18K M. No box or papers. Used but not abused. Price for the set is $300 shipped. I’ll through in a very nice and little used maroon 2 pen FC leather case for another $15 if you want it.

#6 – Faber Castel E-motion in brown croc print. The pen has been used but not abused. It comes with a steel F nib that has been reworked with one of Art’s Nibs famous Tomahawk grinds. Art is no longer grinding nibs as far as I know so if you want to get your hands on one of these pens, this is a great chance. No boxes or papers. I am asking $135 shipped in the us.

#7 – Sheaffer Lifetime flattop from the 1920’s. Pen is user grade but with a nice rigid and large gold lifetime nib. Pen was resacked about 2 years ago so should be fine for a while. It is a lever filler. The trim is brassed and the pen has extra white dots that look like extra lifetime dots. It is probably just someone adding them to the pen instead of some sort of factory change. I am asking $115 shipped in the US.

Hi Lloyd,

The nib is an F in my estimation. I can double check tomorrow in the office. Send me a PM with your email if you want photos or have more detailed questions.
