Rotring and Haff

Hello. I’m sorry if this is not at all the forum and too bold to do this.

I have listed my grandmother’s Haff 149aE and a bundle of her Rotring pens on eBay. She has treasured these and her arthritic hands have meant she can no longer create her incredible art. I’m not sure how to get the word out- I’d much rather these went to a home where they will continue to be treasured!!
My name is Thea and I’m in Australia but will ship these. My email is theadb@gmail.com.

Again, I’m sorry if this isn’t appropriate to do!

I think eBay is the right place for getting the word out. Are these the Rotring 2000 Isograph pens? If so, the international shipping will be a huge obstacle. Also, there are less drafters these days, so it is difficult to find collectors of ink drafting pens. I would put them on eBay (or Etsy, or Mercari) with a Buy It Now price and leave them for good until the right buyer shows up.

How kind are you?! Thank you!
Yes- there’s 9 of the Rotring 2000 with different sized nibs. I listed them at auction (eek!), so should that fail I will be heeding your advice straightaway!

Thank you so much for such a quick, helpful and kind reply :blush:

Could you post a picture of this set/item? Cannot recall which one is it right now. The “E” should stand for “Etui” (“with box”), and the “a” seems to imply it is a variant of some sort. Could it be a 194AE instead, namely a proportional divider? Thank you in advance.

Yes, appears to be this one.
