Pelikan 101N Tortoise Celluloid RHR Fountain Pen 1938. 14C Full Flex Nib RARE. Fully serviced with new Cork. Works, Fills and Writes as when new. Made in Germany 1938. What a handsome pen this is. Beautiful Tortoise Pattern made of Celluloid. These early examples really do have the best colour and tone of all the Pelikan Tortoise pens. As elegant and handsome as this pen is to look at it writes even better. Superb flex nib full of personality. Writes with a Bold and confident Medium line that has Fine line side stroke at normal pressure. Perfect for everyday use. However this wonderful nib also has sublime flexibility that allows for even more line width variation on the down stroke when varying levels of pressure is applied. Can flex from Fine to all the way past triple Broad. Pelikan simply do not make nibs like this. Not since the 1930-40s. These Pelikan 101N are COMPACT in size but to think of them as small is to not understand their design. When caped ready for storage or placement in your pocket the pen is quite compact at 12cm. However this size is a deception as once you unscrew off the cap the pen itself is a good length similar to 1950s Montblanc 146 or 1930-40s 136 and 134 pens etc.. Also same length once posted cap on tail, indeed the 101N is longer than a 134. (see photo 7 & 10). The Secret to the Compact size is in the Cap. The threads are half way into the Cap so it screws on much much deeper than a Montblanc etc etc… C ome s ready to write just add your favorite colour bottled ink… Perfect as a gift or treat yourself to a wonderful collectible fountain pen that can be used and enjoyed daily..
