Newest Acquisitions (Virtual "Show & Tell") ~ part 115

And now, a couple of more modern Pelikan fountain pens acquired by our friend Glenn in Australia (Glenn is an honourary member of our pen club who has been quietly amassing a wonderful collection of Pelikans)...

Glenn: "Released eventually in January 2019 after many delays (https://thepelikansperch.com/?s=stresemann&submit=Search), I put off buying one for the next 21 months, which I thought was a pretty good effort, but now this M1005 Stresemann with M nib joins my existing M405 and M805 versions. It’s a standard pattern, not a special edition, so there is no rarity value as such."

   "And yes, I have succumbed to temptation, and the M605 Stresemann is en route to join my flock as well, completing the 4 pen ‘set.’ Clearly I have become a Pelikan tragic!"

 

Speaking of which.....

 

                             Meet Glenn's brand-new Pelikan M605 Stresemann fountain pen :)

 

 

                                                    (what a lovely nib...)

Many thanks to Glenn for sharing his wonderful new Pelikan acquisitions with us!
