Checking to see your opinion on these Edison Pen models! These are all from the Signature Line (Custom Orders). May be looking into one soon, and wanted to see what you thought!

I like all of them personally!
The Huron is nice, because it reminds you of a vintage pen!

Which is your favorite among these Edison custom classics?

Hi Frank,

I think the Glenmont has a style of the vintage pens more than the others especially if made with the contrasting top and tail, perhaps in the red/black ebonite.

Always fun to dream! Good luck.

Roger

Thanks Roger!

I think the Glenmont has a lot going for it as well!

It has that "Vintage Parker" look to it!

I voted for the Pearl but I was really torn between that and the Huron, among the choices above. When I first stumbled upon the Edison pens website, I was drooling over the Mina, but I've since changed my mind. If I had the budget for it, I'd get a Herald. :)

I have narrowed the choice down to the Huron in these colors-

Let me know what you think!

Are you getting the tortoise flake? I think for this model, I would opt for the colors in the first pic. :)

Frank,
I have been scheming on a custom Edison for a while, it is on my drawing board..... I got in on the group buy over on "you know where"....Ebonite Beige/Black Pearl with gold furniture & 2tone nib.
Once it gets to me, I will decide whether or not the custom will be a "go", the idea for the custom is a tortoise barrel with a satin black ebonite cap, finial and section.... probably an Eyedropper.... perhaps even a jawdropper too!
The two color / material idea strikes me as having a very "refined" look...alot like a Pelikan. Hmm.
