    Default Pelikan leather zipper case

    I've had some bad luck with my pen cases: they are usually too big for my Pelikans and I really don't like the newer Pelikan cases. So I finally found a very nice vintage three pen leather zipper case that came to me all the way from Croatia:

    Now my birds can travel protected...

    How do you carry your Pelikans?

    That is nice. I'm pining for one of the early Pelikano cases, which have a built-in socket rendering the pouch a desk-base when it's open.
    Given to daily lunatic raving, but also capable of more prolonged pen-centricity.

    That is nice. Personally I find the zippered cases annoy me with taking too long to get open, plus some of mine have zipper issues. I have a handful of them and while I do store pens in them I do not carry pens in them.

    I actually prefer the new style Pelikan cases. And my all time favorite is the Franklin-Cristoph Penvelope. That thing is pure goodness.

    Here is what I pulled out of my bag this morning:
    F-C pouch in the back, some generic leather single pen pouch (burgundy) on the left, what might be a small cigar holder in the middle with my current favorite M100 and M150 since nothing larger will fit, and a Pelikan 2 pen pouch. I also have a 12 pen pouch at home that I swear that I got from Fountain Pen Hospital but I can't find it on their website now. While it is not the quality of the F-C Penvelope, it was much cheaper and works fine.

    No. I got it from Sasa Kovacevik who sells by the name of Adam11 on FPN. Fast and friendly service!

    That cigar holder looks very nice!

    Miro has eBay shop Penkalapens so I thought it was his.
