Just a quick note to introduce my self .... I'm J.R. Kulikowski ... and I'm a penoholic!

My primary collecting focus is hard rubber Watermans. I've managed to piece together the complete set of #7 ripples and have started to move on to other ripples and overlays. I'm also looking to piece together the set of #67 (#7 desk pens).

Happy hunting.
J.R.

Welcome :)

Sounds like an impressive Waterman collection.

I never did get around to photographing my 67 Rose Ripple. One of these days.... ;)

Welcome J.R.! It's a fun addiction. I think I've seen you recently trolling through the outdoor antiques markets trying to land some pens.

Yeah Jim ... this weekend was fun. Some better scores than we've had in recent weeks. I've been finding some auto-related stuff to at least scratch the antiques itch.

I'll be in touch soon about the ripple ...

Hmmm... now why does that name sound familiar....

Oh yeah, I know why... I got this guy's 58 ripple in my pocket today. Being as big as I am, the pen looked stupid huge in my pocket, lol..... Oh man, oh man.... that freaking nib is spectacular. Honestly tho, I will admit, a 58 is too large for daily use.

(pssst JR... I understand what you are saying about the flow on that monster, it needs a little adjust... )

A bunch of us went pen hunting this past sunday, and Autopoint, a new guy I met on FPN, and JR were out. It was incredible, we had a great day. Some of our party did not make it, due to other issues, last minute change of plans, etc... they missed out.

good times

Yeah .... who would've thought that a fountain pen nib marked as "Ballpoint" would write so well ....
