HisNibs.com update -- Baoer, Cotyer & piston converter for the Pilot 78G
November 26th, 2012

Greetings all,

Introducing the Baoer Sonata, which is an homage to the Parker Sonnet -- at a small fraction of the cost.

Also introducing the Cotyer MB series, which bears more than a passing resemblance to the classic profile of certain German and Japanese pens!

After many requests, we're now carrying a piston converter for the ever-popular Pilot 78G pens.

Baoer Sonata series



I'm going to start my description of the Baoer Sonata by comparing it to another pen -- the Parker Sonnet -- to which it pays homage. The Parker Sonnet has been a very popular fountain pen model, available in a myriad of finishes, for close to two decades now. The Baoer Sonata captures the main design highlights of the Sonnet at a much lower price point.

Cotyer MB series



The Cotyer MB is an oversized, lacquer-over-brass fountain pen that takes its overall appearance from both Montblanc and Pilot pens. Measuring 5-1/2" capped, 6-1/2" posted and 5" with cap held aside, it's a solid, classic-looking writer.

Bob Dylan´s HAND LETTERING EXPERIENCE

Bob Dylan is often credited with creating the first music video, back in the 60's, when he filmed the lyrics -- using oversized flashcards -- for his song 'Subterranean Homesick Blues"

Now the artist Leandro Senna has recreated those cards with unique and intricate hand-lettered ones.

See the video of his efforts in the November 24th blog entry, linked below.
