Perchin



This used to be my favorite, but recently traded it - have always loved this YG LeGrand as it's massive - the Serenites are pretty cool as well:

Thanks - Perchins and David Oscarsons are some of my faves, but they are more eye candy/art then actual implements for writing.

A new favourite! Yard-o-Led Grand Viceroy in Barleycorn pattern. Couldn't get the Victorian as the USA distributor is no longer bringing this in, and I was loathe to order from England. So I "settled" for the Barleycorn pattern. The pen is huge!

I like that YoL pen. How about writing with it?

I have collected Yard-O-Led pens and even pencils for about 10 years or so. They make some of the better build instruments that I know of. Build like a tank in sterling silver.

I am not much into ballpoints, but when I saw this Corinthian I had to add it!

Richard, you have such an amazing collection of fountain pens! Quite frankly, your impressive collection presents quite a feast for the eyes of any fountain pen aficionado! Bravo!

Thanks Blue, but to be sure my FP collection is nothing in comparison to many out there.

Enjoy!

Thanks Leo.
The nib is sadly only semi flex, not like the other #30 that is totally flexible.
As for age, approx early 1930's.

Thanx for the information…and enjoy your beautiful Vintage MontBlanc FP!!!
I have a stainless steel Rollerball MontBlanc pen that was my Dad's daily user but it's only from the early 1990's or late 1980's(I believe)!!!
Take care…..Leo

My Daniel Defoe with a fine nib. I've been trying to find a good Agatha Christie to take that spot ...
