The pen you wished you'd bought...

but you didn't; the one that got away.

For me, it's an Omas Marconi in blue. Man, oh man, why didn't I buy one of
these when they came out new? I wanted it then but was in grad school - not
much spare $$ - and I still lust after one.

JB,

If your student loans are paid off (and you were hired by The Donald), go to
FPH's website (www.fountainpenhospital.com). Look for the Omas LEs. Scroll
down, about 4 pens from the bottom. FPH says "email for pricing and
availability", which probably means, "If you aren't The Donald or The Bill
(Cosby), forget it."
