The Pelikan 140 in black is an elegant variant of Pelikan’s great workhorse.

We have two examples, a regular black 140 (GSH19) and a Taylor, made for the English market (GSH18) with a DEF nib.

GSH19 is a very clean early example with Export marking.

This pen is also part of a collection of mostly Pelikans that I have been asked to sell by the family of Gilly Hart, who was my first webmaster after my daughter Anna, designer of the site, went off to college. Sadly, Gilly died in February 2020 at the age of 38.
