This is where I will take the opportunity to show off some of the pens in my 'permanent' collection. These
will mostly be pens of a rather unique nature, or those that I simply can't bear to part with for one reason or another.

 

 

A D. P. Manifold Pen. This one was made by Conway Stewart as evidenced by the flanged lever and the patent number near the bottom of the barrel. The pen has a nice flexible Warranted 14K nib and was purchased at auction on eBay. Every once in a while you can make some good finds there.

 

 

This one is a two-tiered custon pen. Manufactured by Conway Stewart for Combridge Birmingham. The lever shield carries the stylized CB imprint. Oddly enough, the pen is imprinted "The Maenson Pen". This was another of those occasional 'lucky' eBay purchases. The #3 Conway Stewart nib may or may not be original to the pen. One of the best writers in my collection as it has a medium nib with good flex.

 

 

Canadian Waterman 92 in a semi transluscent green/gold snakeskin pattern with vivid red veins. Note the dual rings on the barrel, which to the best of my knowledge only occurs on the Canadian 92s and 92Vs. The nib is a Waterman Canada 2 and is a medium with some flex. In 5 years of collecting, this is the only one of these I have ever seen.
