I often considered buying a Lamy Persona and used to search regularly on the bay. Now I seem to have missed my opportunity and have given up.

I just have sold my CusTom No. 38....
Fortunately, I made a couple of pictures before.
Taking pictures and archiving pen datas is a process which helps me (on a mental level) letting go and selling beautiful pens.

Hi Ron
I didn't know about that problem. Was it simply due to roughness or a chemical reaction?
I gave my black Persona (Titanium Oxyde) to the Museum...Maybe I should warn them...?

Not on the level of Christof's fine photos, but yesterday Will asked for submissions of "cool celluloids" and I set some pens in the window and took a photo with my phone. The first is a small Conklin and the next three are Diamond Point.

The titanium oxide is a very fine abrasive, so the combination of contact with the pen in my shirt pocket, and movement effectively sanded the finish (including lacquer) off of the pen which which it came in contact. The pen reminded me of the black spaceship in Restaurant at the End of the Universe.... very cool. As long as it isn't stored where it can come in direct contact with other pens, it should be fine.Hi Ron
