1937-1950 Green Pelikan 100Ns


The Pelikan 100N:
The Pelikan 100N, produced from 1937 until some time in the early 1950s, is larger and more streamlined than the classic Pelikan 100 and holds correspondingly more ink. Early models have the same hard rubber charm; late models, with their synthetic seals, make tough and reliable little workhorses. There are two capband styles for 100Ns, as the photograph shows. We tend to have slightly more pens of the two-capband style come through the site. The pens described below have correct parts for the years listed unless otherwise noted. Nibs swaps are usually possible, and more details are available on request.
Pens available:
PE1970: 1939 Pelikan 100N green acrylic barrel with green marbled celluloid binde. The barrel on this is only mildly clouded, the ink level is easily visible. Overall the pen is in fine condition. With a 14 K plain script OB nib, this pen would make a fine user. The inner threads to the section are stripped on this pen, so I had to secure the nib collar with bonding agent. Otherwise a fine pen. $325.00 ~~PE 2081: 1939 Pelikan 100N green striped. The nib is a 14K/585 incised script EF. This pen has a later style seal. $375.00~~ SOLD! ~~PE 1688: 1940 Pelikan 100N. Very clean wartime pen with a smooth, rigid medium CN nib and a lovely marbled binde. $350.00.~~ SOLD! PE 1686: 1948 Pelikan 100N. Another good user, with a spectacular OB Italic CN nib. If you haven't tried the Pelikan steel nibs, you should and this one is as good as they get. Not much else to say about this pen. A great bargain for a super user at $375.00. PE2025: An early postwar Pelikan 100N in near perfect condition. These are superb users, offering the sturdiness of a modern pen with classical Pelikan style. This one even has the original neoprene seal in working order and the fine nib indicated on the turning knob. The 14 K nib shows just a hint of flex. $375.00. SOLD! PE2083: This early postwar (1947) model has a smooth ball pointed medium CN (steel) nib. CN nibs are often overlooked by gold-obsessed folk but can be great writers and this one is. A great everyday user and a great introductory Pelikan. $325.00 PE2158: 1950 Pelikan 100N, green striated binde with black celluloid cap. The clouded ink window makes this a perfect user, as does the medium flexible double incised script 585 nib. This pen is completely sound and fully guaranteed. $350.00 We have Pelikan 200 mechanical pencils to match any of the above models. Add one and make a set. Pencils range in price from $75.00-125.00. Please inquire for price and specific materials and markings.
