Description:
1950s Pelikan 140 in forest green. A cool, elegant pen, essential to any 140 collection (our webmaster has several).

PE1530: This is strictly a user grade pen principally because the cap is bulged out at the lip, but is not cracked. To compensate, not only is this pen inexpensive at $195.00, but it has a luscious medium 14 K nib that writes more like a broad. Overall condition is good. There's some pitting to the cap band. SOLD!

PE1537: This is a 140 from the mid 1950s with an early script style EF nib. The pen shows moderate to heavy use, but no abuse. A good sound pen. $225.00. Some nib choice available.
