[SOLD]Pelikan 140 Green Striated $115

[SOLD]Pelikan 140 Green Striated

Very good condition Pelikan 140 with great writing experience. This one has a much more flexible nib than most vintage Pelikan nibs. While most is semi-flex this one is a beautiful full flex. Delivering lines from XF to BB+. Piston is buttery smooth and operates flawlessly. Barrel has superb transparency to view remaining ink supply. The collar is stuck in the section so the nib/feed is friction fit. You can use something grippy to pull out the nib/feed, or if you'd like to change the nib/feed unit completely the collar can be removed with a thin knife. This will leave the collar unuseable however. If you don't plan to change nibs then the pen works like it should, and delivers a awesome writing experience. The clip has superb tension. Gold trim has a little bit of wear. Writing sample is done on .5cm grid 90 gsm Clairefontaine paper. Measurements: 12.5cm capped, 14.3cm posted, and 11.3cm unposted.

Asking price is $115 shipped within CONUS via Priority with tracking/insurance. USA buyers preferred. International buyers please PM or Email for shipping rates. I am not responsible for any duty fees incurred since I have no control over customs.
