    Default What is your latest pen acquisition?

    Hi guys.

    I searched for such a thread here, and I couldn't find any.
    So: Please feel free to share your latest pen acquisition.

    Cheers,

    Maria.

    I just got these two in the mail Friday. This is a Parker 51 set in Nassau Green.

    The next pen is an Esterbrook Dollar Fifty pen and pencil in the rare Green Cracked Ice pattern. I have been looking for these for a long time.

    Both are lovely. My favorite on the Parker 51. The gold cap and Nassau Green are a perfect combination and that Esterbrook Green Cracked Ice patter is one I am going to add to my collection!

    My Compliments or two great acquisitions!

    A Jinhao Dragon Offspring. This pen writes wonderfully, looks great and has dragons!!

    The clip is a dragon; there is a dragon embossed on the body, and the large two toned nib has a dragon etched on it.

    This would be perfect if one's school colors were blue and gold,
    like UC Berkeley, for instance.

    My TWSBI Vac 700 arrived about a week ago. I am waiting for my FP Revolution Delli to arrive. I ordered it with a stub nib (my first) and a spare fine nib in case I don't like the stub.

    I've been looking for a MB Jonathan Swift for a while, and finally found one at the airport MB shop today. Woohoo.
