Collection Criteria - not normal...

[Empty_of_Clouds]

After getting rid of... well, practically anything that looked pretty, I find myself with what may be a new first.


I present to you the World's Most Boring Collection (of only 4 pens)... enjoy!



Lying down - Blackbird BB2/60
Standing (L to R) Swan No.2 Safety Screw Cap, Swan SF2, Swan 100






I am beginning to wonder if I have sold the spring chickens and kept the old maids!

[earthdawn]

Well I don't see any old maids there are all.

I see some pretty sweet vintage with awesome nibs. The attention to detail with the chasing on the cap and barrels back then is shown off well on these.

You can always say it's your Black Society collection.

[Jon Szanto]

I'd let them eat crackers in my bed!

[KBeezie]

... Ribbed for your pleasure?

(That blackbird is legit by the way :P)

I only have two swans.

One in Black Chased Hard Rubber.



and one in black chased celluloid.

(That blackbird is legit by the way :P)

Mine, you mean? If so, of course it's legit. Came from a restorer beyond reproach.

[Deb]

Those are very fine pens, some of the best ever made.

lol, not 'legit' in that means it's um.. figure of speech, as in awesome or kick-ass... like saying "that is tight!".

Hey, that Swan SF2 has a pretty snazzy cap band! Are you sure you are allowed to keep such a flashy pen?!?!? ;p

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... unless he doesn't like these, then the beholder's eye is wrong.

[Empty_of_Clouds]

18k solid gold I believe. Bit too blingy for such as I though.

I really like the textured black bodies! Subtle but still visually interesting.
