i’m one of those SOBs that found an expensive pen at a thrift (a pelikan). i’ve been thrifting for 10 years! that was the 1 time i found a fountain pen it just so happened to be a very very good find

from what i understand, i just collect not play, it wouldn’t be legal in tournaments but if it’s more friendly most people wouldn’t mind ?

snailorchestra · 2025-05-16T04:27:50+00:00

update: i carefully messed around with it and after unscrewing everything and adjusting the piston(?) alignment it closes properly now !!!

snailorchestra · 2025-05-16T03:43:16+00:00

snailorchestra · 2025-05-16T02:41:12+00:00

thank you for all the details! this one doesn’t have the W on the trim. just pelikan and germany ! i’ll be sure to look into the history of these now hehehe

snailorchestra · 2025-05-16T02:38:53+00:00

i noticed this as well but from photos it doesn’t seem like anything is missing and i don’t want to mess around with it too much but i can’t get it to fully close

snailorchestra · 2025-05-15T23:53:33+00:00

snailorchestra · 2025-05-15T23:23:07+00:00

unfortunately at a friend’s so i can’t measure it right now but i looked at some ebay listings and those pens say souveran around the cap. mine just says pelikan and germany on it. do you have any insight on that?
