The Humankind has a double
helix motif (this would make Crick and Watson proud). Each pen comes with it's
own aluminum backed box with the motif of the etched aluminum, and a hand signed
final control certificate with a numbered personal service card inside the box.
We offer our guarantee on the nib and the writing quality of each pen. Pelikan
states in this certificate that each nib has been carefully tested and "run
in" by hand. We noticed that in the accompanied booklet reference is made
to the DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid, as a code to "infinite variety" which
"still guards from us the secret of our life". Little did they know,
in just a few short years, that the human genome would be well on the way to being
decoded. None the less, this pen has a gorgeous design.
Retail price: $1,275.00 each
We have acquired one Humankind MINT/box with papers numbered (1059/1998). Our price: $995.00
Pelikan Nature Expo Limited Edition
The Nature Expo is engraved with cephalopods, fossilized
extinct sea creatures, "which existed when the earth was in the central phase
of its development". ( The reason ammonites have been used here to depict
nature is because, a "wide range of fossilized ammonites have been discovered,
thereby allowing scientists to date them accurately and to use them to extend
evolutionary theory.") To read more about this see the enclosed Pelikan brochure.

Pelikan
Technology Expo Limited Edition
The circuit
has been engraved into the overlay of the Technology pen as a symbol of
advancement. We find it ironic that what looks like a very up to date symbol will
soon be obsolete. (But then we have a friend that collects Ataris and TRS-80's.)
Each
of these Expo pens has the gold end button which is uncommon with Pelikan pens
today.
Retail price: $1,275.00 each Our

Each of these pens comes with the
M800 size nib that is interchangeable with other Pelikan M800 18K ($171.02) nibs and can be modified to your custom specifications.
To the left is the image of the integrated design of the box
fronts. The faces of these boxes is made of solid aluminum, coated with a film
on which the design and text appear.
This is the only complete,
numbered the same set we have ever had. We got it from the collection of a serious
Pelikan person. It is in mint condition. Of course, we will not break this set.
Our
price: $3,825.00 for matched number set of all three. SOLD
When you buy from us, you
know you will be getting a pen that has been thoroughly tested. Because
nibs are our specialty we do not ship pens that do not write beautifully.
If you need to return a nib or a pen
in its original condition, we will credit you the full price, less shipping.
********************
We
were able to acquire many spare parts
and spare nibs for many Pelikan pens, including 14K M800 nibs for customization
to extra-flexible. One of the beauties of the Pelikan system is the interchangeability
of the nibs. One can have a great pen and a number of different nibs for use in
different situations. Please call for prices and customization options.
