One of our most tragic presidents, John F. Kennedy gets honored with the Montblanc JFK ballpoint pen. This special edition pen comes complete with its original boxes and book. This is the burgundy model and about as large as a LeGrand ballpoint, maybe a shade larger. We just installed a new turquoise ballpoint refill. Our preowned pen has a nice heft to it, too. Minimal wear, but we're sure you can see it is engraved with "FIZ" in the photo. Guaranteed authentic. 14.4cm.

Yes, that Waterford! Ireland's famed makers of fine crystal branched out into several lines of luxury pens nearly 20 years ago.

Engraved on its tail cap is "Imagine Schools." It comes with a working black Parker refill and its original box & papers. Twist the tail cap to advance and retract the refill. 14cm.

Did you know that Parker Sonnets come in a miniature version? We didn't until this Parker Sonnet Mono Refresh arrived on our doorstep. It is an adorable little pen whose design pattern is called "chisled carbon." Click the headline for a close-up. Twist the nose cone to advance or retract the ballpoint. These actually don't take Parker-style refills. It takes a stick refill! This one comes with a working black refill, and the pen appears to be in excellent condition with minimal wear. 10cm.

With a design inspired by a zeppelin, the Giuliano Mazzuoli Nobile Italia commemorates a failed 1928 crossing of the North Pole by blimp.

Unfortunately, the Italia crashed, but luckily everyone on board survived and was rescued. This ballpoint pen is in excellent condition showing minimal wear. It comes with a working Parker-style refill in black. Unscrew the nose cone to replace the refill. Twist the blind cap in the tail to advance and retract the refill. 12.4cm.

New Old Stock! Still sealed in its original box is a limited edition Louis Cartier 150 Plaque Argent ballpoint pen. Numbered 1511 of 1847, this pen was released in 1997 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Cartier. It is kind of amazing to think this is a bit of a time capsule sealed 26 years ago. You can have the joy of being the first person to write with it...or save it for a whole new generation. The silvery wonder is all yours to decide. Click the headline for photos of the sealed box.

Cross Metropolis pens came out in the mid-1990s and really seemed to spruce-up the classic brand's pen line-up. They also were some of the last to be made in the U.S.A. Not made for many years, the pens have developed a cult following in recent years. This black-and-chrome model looks very close to mint condition. Twist the tail cap to advance and retract the working, black Cross refill. 13.3cm capped.

It is difficult to think of Parker Jotter pens as vintage. Oh, sure. They came out in the mid-1950s, but they are still in production today. These 4 pens are a little bit vintage and a little bit modern. The olive colored Jotter has brass threads and a button that has a domed top. The off-white Jotter has brass threads and a stamped inset on the button. The blue and burgundy Jotters have plastic threads and stamped inset button tops. All the stamps are identical with the arrow through a hoop Parker logo. All of the pens seem to work well with new blue or black refills. All of the pens show some wear, with the blue pen showing the most wear. Only the off-white pen's clicker is a little finicky.
