With the recent revelation to the Greater Collecting Population of the existence of the previously secret Black Pen Society, there has been more chat of late regarding black fountain pens. I figured I'd offer a funky spread of black Sheaffer Balance pens, the purpose perhaps to show that black Balances offer some quite advanced material for those who care.
All the pens below, save the last two, are oversized black Sheaffer Balances, the final two standard girth and slender girth respectively.
All the pens are interesting, offering one or more of the following charms: scarcity, off-catalogue status, mutant Canadian findings. There are pens shown that one might not find in a lifetime of collecting.
Kudus if everything below makes sense to you. Observations and comments of course are invited.
regards
David
