In 1878's Wagner added the name "Pelikan" from one of the elements in his family crest: a pelican feeding four chicks in its nest. The Pelikan factory produced ink, paints, glue, type writer ribbons, stencils, stamp pads and carbon paper. In 1929's the first fountain pen was launched: the "Pelikan 100", a piston filler designed by the engineers Theodor Kovacs and Carola Bako. In the 1930's the 100 series were remodelled and the letter N (for "new") was added.During WWII gold was hard to obtain and nibs of chromium/nickel-plated steel were produced, so-called CN nibs. In the 1950's the clip got redesigned in the shape of a pelican beak. After Wagner’s retirement his son-in-law and successor Fritz Beindorff led the company to become one of the world’s leading makers of fountain pens. In the 1970's Pelikan Schoolpens, together with those of Geha were the most popular pens in Germany. Pelikan M200 (Old Style)The model M200 was introduced in 1985's. The size of the fountain pen is identical to the M400 which was manufactured since 1982's. A redesign took place from 1-st of September 1997, so the models prior to the change in 1997's are referred as 'Old Style'. After 9/1997's, the crown cap was changed and a trim ring was added to the filling knob. The M200 pens have a steel nib while model M250 pens have a gold nib. There´s a number of identical fountain pens found in both M200 and M250 versions, only distinguished by the nib material. Pelikan M200 Old Style fountain pen, ready to write!
