    Default Vintage Omas galore :-)

    From my collection, some vintage fountain pens showing how beautiful these pens can be!

    In the first pic, you will find the beautiful arco pattern celluloid both in gray and in brown, in Extra pens (lever fillers) and in 361 piston fillers.

    In the second one, mid sized lever fillers next to the same color vest pocket pens.

    Enjoy!

    How long did it take you to assemble that impressive collection, and do you collect other brands?

    Thanks everybody for the kind words.

    @ Robert: yes, I do collect other brands, like Aurora, Tabo, and rolled gold safeties. I also have the Wahl Deco Band pens (all "common" colors) and the full serie of Vest pocked Parker Duofolds. But I collect everything I like, so many others pens too It took years to have them all!

    Oh my. Must. Hide. Wallet.

    They certainly don't look like your ordinary vintage pens. They look brand new
