The Pelikan Pen Company
The
roots of Pelikan can be dated to 1832, when Carl Hornemann started producing
paints. In 1871 he sold his business to Gunther Wagner. Wagner used his own
family crest, a Pelican feeding four chicks, as the company logo. The Pelikan
factory produced a huge number of stationary products. They started studying
fountain pens in 1925 and were determined to improve on the pens in the market
which relied on filling the barrel with an eyedropper or using a bladder. By
1929 Pelikan had developed and introduced the world’s first piston-filling pen!
The
Pelikan 100 sold well, despite the Great Depression. Other models followed, all
using the same differential piston filling mechanism. Export models, and models
produced in Pelikan factories located outside of Germany, produced an array of
colors and styles not sold in Germany, many of which are very rare today.
Among the rarer Pelikans are pens marked "Emege." These were pens made for
export to Portugal. The name of the Portuguese licensee was Monteiro Guimaraes.
His initials are "M" (eme) and "G" (ge). He was tired of fixing pens under
warrantee which were not bought from him, so he had "Emege" imprinted on all the
pens he imported so he could differentiate between those he sold and those he
didn’t. Among the pens he imported into Portugal was the "Magnum," the only
oversize 100N known to have been made.
Pelikan continues to manufacture a variety of regular and limited edition
writing instruments, which are still thought of as among the highest quality
available in the market.

In mid-1933 the gripping section becomes more curved and the cap only has one vent hole on each side, rather than two. I am listing those with amber celluloid barrels as 1933 and those with green celluloid barrels as 1936 (but this date is uncertain). In 1935 the nib stamped “14K” (used since 1929) is now stamped “585.” |

In 1942 the Celluloid barrels were replaced with one-piece injection molded green acrylic barrels. Caps now have no vent holes. Cork gaskets were replaced with a synthetic black gasket. The turning knobs are no longer knurled. Production of the Model 100 ceased in 1944. |

The Model 100N was introduced in 1937 for export only, and in 1938 for the German market. “N” stood for “New.” It was longer and wider and more streamlined than the 100 (most other manufacturers streamlined their pens years earlier). Early 100Ns have hard rubber caps. Until 1949 the section has a small step at the barrel end. The 100N was discontinued in 1954. |

20 Eyedropper-fill in Smooth BHR. Just the slightest imprint wear (fully readable), otherwise near mint+. There is some horizontal cracking on the left side of the nib, 1/4" up from where it enters the gripping section. Fine, flexible nib. If it wasn’t for this, the pen would be $2,000. |

12 Eyedropper-fill in BHR. 1" wide 14K solid gold cap band sporting an engraved Coat of Arms in red, black yellow and silver enamel. The scroll at the bottom of the coat of arms reads “Deo Dante Dedi” (There is controversy over the correct translation, between “God giving, I gave” and "God having given, I give"). The coat of arms is the logo for the Charthouse School in Surry, England. The back of the barrel band is engraved “C. G. Leigh Hunt,” whom I can only assume was affiliated in some way with the school. Fine, flexible, italic nib. One cap lip crack, otherwise near mint. |
