Yes, the Perry 120 always seems to come with a sample nib on that little card. I can’t remember any of their other boxes including samples, but I could be wrong. However, I think the 120 box is probably the only box with the room to put a sample in, so that may be why.
Truth is the box is quite big! Thank you for your answer, Melanie!
I have never seen that before! Nifty. What's the Perry 120 like? I have never used one.
It is very very fine. Not the softest, it is kind of hard. But has enough flexibility for an elegant copperplate. By elegant I mean: very fine upstrokes, not too thick downstrokes, nice contrast between thin and thick strokes, but an overall look of tall and thin letters.
Very cool! It's like an extra prize from the gumball machine!
Yes! I kinda got more excited about it than about the nibs I actually had bought!
That's very cute! I've only seen sample boxes so far – or a box with just about 10 nibs inside. It was tiny (and very cute). I actually gave it away though .
Oh! That's tiny! Didn't know those existed! I have some little plastic boxes with 10-12 nibs from Blanzy (I think), but plastic is so less cute!
