Second box of Fountain Pens and Rollers

Here is the second storage box with my growing fountain pen and roller collection. This box holds 50 pens.

Here are my Diplomats, Cross and my Levengers.

Her are the Narwhals, Visconti, Conklins and Kawecos.

More Viscontis, and the three on the right that came from Kickstarter. Two have meteorites in the cap and the other has a small piece of gold from Alaska.

This row has my Faber Castells and some others.

This last row and some Pilot S20s and a S30. My Taccis ball point, Cross ball point and a new Jetstream Edge.

Here is one of the my fountain pens that I am currently using. A Cross Townsend Lapis Lazuli limited fountain pen with a 18K medium nib. This is a good looking pen that writes very well. The blue Lapis has gold specks all through the body of the pen so no two are the same. Add all these pens to your collection.
 

Starting a New Collection

While I do have thousands of ball points pens and mechanical pencils I have had very few fountain pens. That is changing. I currently have two of these pen storage boxes that are now full of fountain pens and rollerball pens.

First level we have all my LeBOEUF fountain and rollerball pens. Some other brands like the lime green Hinze fountain pen are here.

More of the same. Some rollers some fountain pens.

Most of these are fountain pens with a few rollers. Next post I will show the other pen storage box. Add all these great pens top your collection.
 

New Pentel Case

 This makes number four of these great Pentel Cases that you would find in stationary stores all around the world. I now have four of these and they are all full. I have some smaller pentel cases that are also full.  How many Pentel pencils are there? Add these fine cases to your collection.

Calculators

 Here are some of my pocket calculators. These are the smaller pocket calculators that you may have put in your pocket, school bag or brief case. I also collect the larger ones that would be on your desk. 

Many of these need batteries and some do not work but they are all good examples of pocket calculators. Some of these have been used as props on TV and movies.

I do like the small Casios. Every desk should have an old calculator on it.

I was surprised at the different types of these small Casio calculators. Some have a silver face or a gold face. A few are from Radio Shack. Some have a clear plastic window and some have a gold tint window. A few come in metal cases. The rest have small leather cases. The on/off switch is on the top on a few and on the side for others. Add all these Calculators to your collection. 

 

New Papermate Display

 Here we have a very nice cardboard display from Papermate. This one is from the 60s.and the display shows 13 Papermate Malibu pens. These are some of their best dollar pens. If you check the rest of the blog you can see the larger Malibu collection. The bus is 3D and sticks out about 2 inches.

 These are some my Pentel Smash Pencil collection. Pentel is always coming out with new colors for these great pencils. Add all these pens and pencils to your collection. 

Lets Post Some New Items

I have had some questions about the number of BIC pens over the last 40 years. While not complete, this is is a good showing of what was made.

I

       Here we have a complete set of Scripto pens from the 40s and 50s. These pens were never used.

          Here is a closeup of the Scripto Ball Point Pen. Add all these great pens to your collection.

New from Zebra

                                       Here we have the new Zebra G750. This is the all metal EDC pen. 

                      Here is the new G402s on the left and the G450 on the right. This pen has a brass body.                                                                                     This pen (G450) appears to be a lesser G750.

                                          Here is the X701 with the pressurized barrel with two refills.

                                                 The newly designed F301a. comes in four colors.

                                               And just because I wanted one a Rotring 600 3 in 1.

 

New Pens

Here are the new pens. The last six after the Pen Addict Orange On the bottom row right side.

The orange pen sticking up is the Pen Addict. These are great pens that have great refills that seem to last forever.

Last four on the end are the new extra large Jotters. Now there are eight in the collection.

They are great pens but I like the regular size. I have been using them for fifty years.

Here are some new Pentels. Great collection. Add them all to your collection.

 

Retro 51 Glow In the Dark Collection

Here we have my Retro Glow in the Dark collection. There are 59 regular issue pens plus one proto type. I believe I have them all but I have been proven wrong before. I do know that I am missing some proto types so the search continues.

 These are great pens and they do glow. Add them all to your collection.

Hungarian Scripto T220

For some years I have seen used Scripto T220 type pens from Hungary. These pens are in fact not made by Scripto but were copied in the 70s and apparently are still being used. This is a current retro package of their version of a T220 called a ICO 70.

Here is the Scripto T220 with a P360 matching 0.9mm pencil to go with it. I use the Fisher 4 N 1 refills for these pens.

 Here are some of my collection of older Scripto pens and pencils. On the far right are a few of the older pens from the 50s called Dollar Pens, Super Dollar or just Push Button Pen. There are two demonstrators and the K780s plus a few K21s. K21 was the replacement for the K780. Add them all to your collections.

New Items For June 2020

Nice set of new Parker pastels.

Here is a set of BICs I did not have.

I remember giving a set like this to my mother.

 Nice gold with no clip.

Here  is the blue Rotring 600. Add them all to your collection.

Happy 4th Of July

Rotring 600 Red

About time. Many fans of Rotring pencils have been looking for some color. Well hear is the red Rotring 600 0.7mm pencil. Great addition to my growing Rotring collection.

There are other new colors but the red is all I can find at this point in time. The 600 is to many one of the best all round mechanical pencils out there. Could be. I have always been a Pentel person but I also spent ten years in Germany so I have seen what is on display in small town stationary stores in the 70s and 80s.

Here are have some great other pencils that do red up right. Rotring 600, Pentel GraphGear 1000 and the Spoke. Add them all to your collection.

Lindy Executive Slim-Pak Writing Set

cutive 

 My love of Lindy Pens go way back. I am proud of my large collection of these great pens but as I discover all the time there was more to the Lindy Pen Company then just pens.

  Here is the Executive Slim-Pak Writing Set. I would think from the late 60s to early 70s. I remember using these plastic brief cases in the Army. First we have the Brief Case made of plastic with the Flexigrip snag resistant zipper.

 Inside is the plastic Executive Portfolio with a paper tablet.

 As you can see this is a blank tablet that when tested I found that this is ball point friendly paper not fountain pen.

Also included is a Lindy 481-M Black Utrractapen. The pen is 6" long. These pens require a Fisher 4 n 1 refill. Add this great set to your collection.
