Re: In praise of M120N

Addendum:

Perhaps the icing of the cake would have been to have each M120N stamped with an individual number and the possibility to have the ownership registered at Pelikan in Hannover and get a badge or a certificate in return...

Pelikan M400 friction fit, needs a new home

Friends, I happen to own an early M400 with a friction fit nib-feeder unit. The seller said he didn't know that it was a friction fit unit, and I didn't discover it immediately. The pen is green-striped, with an F nib and works great. The nib unit is easily removed but has never spontaneously come o...

In praise of M120N

Friends, I just want to announce to the world that I at last have found The Pen , it's my new Pelikan M120N F nib! Why, when I have a lot of nice pens of different brands? As I am often on the go and cannot spend hours at a proper desk, I need a pen that I always can carry with me. The M120N meets a...

Re: Pelikan M400

Thank you so much for caring about my request!

Yes, I've found my dream pen this fall, a green striped 400 from the early 50s. At last a real Stresemann!

I love everything with this pen and I've bought a black and green leather case for it.

I'm happy.

Best Wishes

Lennart :D

M400 with friction fit nib unit

Friends, Yesterday I received a M400 that I have ordered from a well known seller of quality pens. It was a green striped M400 with fine nib. The pen is gorgeous but I soon noticed that the nib unit was loose and that it lacked threads and I could not make it stay in place. I solved the problem with...

Pelikan M400

Friends, I'm a user of fountain pens and not a collector per se. But on the way to perfect combinations you sometimes have to try different pens. At work, as a doctor, I use a Parker 51 for taking notes, and a Pelikan M200 with a Richard Binder italic nib for signing documents. For fine writing at ...
