B barberbob Messages 296 Sunday November 17, 2013 #1 I have some fountain pens from the late 50' early 60's. Am pretty sure they are worth nothing but are quite sentimental to me. They all have a small arm on the side which sucks the ink up but pretty much all need whatever it is inside replacing. One I think needs a new nib. Does anyone here undertake this work or know of where I can get it done?

He lives near me in Dumfries, really nice bloke to deal with, he has a web site, we'll worth a try, a pen service is probably approx £15.
