5483 Pelikan Souverän M400* Filling Mechanism:
Piston FillerEra:
1980-present Fountain Pen Nib Size:
XFPrice:
$199.99According to this pen's original owner, it started life as a Pelikan Souverän M400 with a gold nib. Some how, somewhere along the line, this handsome tortoiseshell colored luxury pen ended up with an extra-fine steel nib like an M200. Where does that leave it? It leaves us with a very attractive pen in great working order. Just light wear from use. You can twist the piston filler smoothly and easily from the blind cap in the tail. Writing is fun, firm and a little feedback that doesn't feel particularly scratchy. On top of the cap is a logo with a black field and golden mama pelican with a single chick. 12.5cm capped.

1980-present Fountain Pen Nib Size:
MPrice:
$175.00Black-flecked amber makes for a really handsome, almost demonstrator-like, Sailor Magellan fountain pen. We keep looking through it hoping to find a mosquito with lost dinosaur DNA to start a theme park. Click the headline for a close-up. The only real wear or damage to the pen is around the golden ring where the nib fits into the section. Otherwise, the pen looks great with only some light surface wear. In a rarity for Sailor nibs, this 14k gold beauty is marked H-F, for hard fine. BUT, it writes like a rigid medium. Usually Japanese nibs skew finer not fatter. We found a converter that fits it, but it isn't the original converter. 13.9cm capped.

5550 Sailor 1911 Filling Mechanism:
Cartridge/ConverterEra:
1980-present Fountain Pen Nib Size:
MPrice:
$149.99Quite possibly the best daily driver fountain pens out of Japan, the Sailor 1911 is a must have for most all fountain pen enthusiasts. Also extremely popular are the demonstrator model. This green Sailor 1911 demonstrator looks about as close to new as a pre-owned pen can look. Best of all, it comes with its original boxes and a leather carrying pouch! Click the headline to see the close-up of the nib. It is marked H-M. This means it is a "hard" (firm) medium writer. It is a Japanese medium, which means it is closer to a European or American fine. We also find it to be a dry writer that sounds and feels a little scratchy as it writes. 13.5cm capped.

5516 Pelikan Souverän R200 Filling Mechanism:
RollerballEra:
1980-presentPrice:
$99.99Technically, this Pelikan R200 is called a marble blue. However, as we gaze at the sheening swirls of blue-grey, we prefer to call it "Smoky Blue." Evoking those stunning black-and-white portraits of jazz stars, where their cigarette smoke is its own personality in the photo, we find this preowned pen's design to be just as elegant. Overall, the pen looks nearly perfect, but you can see a ring of wear where the cap snugged against the barrel by the threads. We installed a new, black Pelikan rollerball refill. Complete with its original boxes and papers. 12.4cm capped.
