This is a complete set of Classic Pens LB5 prototype fountain pens photographed over the course of their introduction from 2012 and 2013. Left to right are Tensui (raindrops) in Space Blue, Tairiku (continent) in Marble White, Midorigi (new green trees) in Forest Green, Kaen (violent flames) in Flame Red, Kouseki (metal ore) in Diamond Brown, Tairiku (continent) in Amethyst Mauve, and Tensui (raindrops) in Space Blue with rhodium plated trim and nib. Each is made of Carville diffusion bonded acrylic and is a 6 1/16 inches long oversize cartridge / converter pen based on Sailor's top of the line King Profit, also known as King of Pen. The LB5 is ¼ inch longer than the standard King Profit because the barrel is longer. The cap band is a very wide, full to cap lip gold plated insert, engraved with SAILOR LB5 [model name] 00/50 around the entire band. Each color had 50 production pens each with an individual edition number on the band. The standard nib was a medium or broad 21 karat gold Sailor nib marked 1911 over 21K over 875 over the Sailor logo. The edition is sold out. #pencollecting #fountainpen #classicpens #lambroupens #artpen #sailor #sailorpen #sailorjapan #kingofpen #kingprofit #tairiku #kaen #midorigi #kouseki #tensui #tairiku #amethyst #penhero https://www.instagram.com/p/CLp6GjVD9oy/?igshid=hzinsx4xsr04
