SSince seeing my first, oh perhaps 8 years ago, I've seen no doubt fewer than 10 Chameleon pens all told. I own a grand example in nearly perfect jade celluloid, and shot the pens below probably at the Chicago Pen Show several years ago. High quality pens from a tiny manufacturer.
PIC. Frankly rare double-point Chameleon pens. Vintage.

Resurrecting this topic from the dead. Ever since I saw one of these on the cover of The Pennant a number of years ago, I had to have one. A guy locally owns one but wasn't interested in selling. I finally won one last night on eBay. When it comes in, I'll clean it up and take some photos. Mine is the Jade and Black Four Way that you have photographed here David.

Here are some photos of the Four Way I just received. I didn't have the right size sacs for the bulbs, so I'm using standard sized Vacumatic diaphrams. Hopefully that'll work!

We just picked up one of these exactly like the green ones shown above .... and we have the exact same weird combination of nibs!
I also heard from John Jenkins in mid-April, who told me that of the three Chameleons that he has, two of them have this nib configuration. There are too many of them with this configuration for it to be the result of replacement. Clearly this is the original configuration. I can't for the life of me figure out why the company did it this way.
