Does anybody have a one piece versus two piece barrel assembly photo that they would be willing to share?

I have several of the photos from the FPN "Dating your 149" thread. They are saved on another device, but if nobody else posts pics between now and this evening, I can do it then.

Here is the image I was thinking of. Note that these are not my photos. If FPN were accessible right now, I would direct questions to the original thread over there.

Earthdawn,

The Penworld article by Barry Gabay referenced in the chart is an excellent resource and worth looking for. When/if FPN is online again, it is linked in the pinned topics at the top of the MB forum. You may be able to find the article by doing a Google search.

Sloegin, be sure to let us know what you receive so we can celebrate with you!

Of the 149s I've handled this is the oldest. It is a nice pen but just doesn't do it for me. I am probably going to have to track down a celluloid one :|

Looks nice, though.

Good luck with the celluloid search. I'm on the same route with the 146.
Costly stuff isn't it?

Good luck
