I had a lot fun trying to find the "perfect" blue. The Menlo is a lot of fun to fill and clean (way more fun than a piston-filler, really).Azizah Asgaralihttp://www.gourmetpens.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484890041572022255.post-63603052461129719802014-07-07T07:10:48.800-04:002014-07-07T07:10:48.800-04:00They are...the blue is captivating.

I ha...Thanks so much Azizah, wonderful review(s).<br /><br /><br />I have been a proud owner of an Edison Morgan pump-filler in the light blue translucent acrylic for several months. Initially I was considering an ebonite material for the pen, but one look at the translucent acrylics and that thought was tossed out the window.<br />I love the Morgan (clipless) so much that few of my other fountain pens make it to the EDC Nock Co Hightower case I take to work each day. Filled with Pelikan Edelstein Topaz, the Edison Morgan is truly a stunning combination of looks and quality.<br /><br /><br />I think a Menlo may be in my future, the next time I see the Grays at a pen show. Brian and Andrea are really wonderful to talk with when selecting a pen model and material - it really brings home the fact that this is a pen that is being specially made just for you.<br /><br /><br />Enjoy the DC show.pajhurleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484890041572022255.post-50450718826545370022014-07-03T14:36:01.858-04:002014-07-03T14:36:01.858-04:00Here it is.Here it is.William Eagleburgernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484890041572022255.post-52464317803892891882014-07-03T14:34:51.743-04:002014-07-03T14:34:51.743-04:00Wonderful review, Azizah!
