Pelikan


Pelikan 100N Magnum Emege

This is a 1935 Pelikan 100N Magnum Emege PIF in Tortoise with Red Hard Rubber cap, inner cap and turning knob, and gold trim. Pelikan’s only oversize vintage pen, explaining its high demand among Pelikan collectors. The inner-cap imprinted “Emege,” representing Pelikan’s licensed Portugese distributor, who so signed all the Pelikans he sold, so he didn’t need to repair under warrantee any pens he did not sell. Fine nib. Visualated barrel. Item #21 in Catalog #81.

Pelikan 100 Fine Flex Nib

If I don’t first. I have copied Gary and Myrna’s red box system to highlight the pen in question …

Handwritten Post – A Civilized Wardrobe

A friend of mine left this comment on one of my pictures awhile back, and I thought it was perfect. Indeed, fountain pens look as good in a pocket as a proper bow tie! To me, anyway.

Pelikan Souverän M1000

The beautiful, large Pelikan Souverän M1000 piston-filling fountain pen – the flagship of the Souverän series. The 18KT gold nib is a fine, but because it is such a large nib and a German-made nib, you can expect the fine to run on the broader side. This pen is new-old-stock, and is mint in its original box (box is incorrectly labeled as Green). Item #111 in Catalog #77

Handwritten Post – Jade

Pelikan, as you know, makes more than just great pens. The Pelikan Edelstein range is named after gem stones, and in this case, Jade. This is just a representation of the gemstone, which can apparently vary in color. Being a natural material, that’s not surprising. I like this one a lot.
