Speedball Nibs Are Great

Comments about Speedball Lettering Nibs:
I actually write with dip pens for all my personal correspondence, so a good nib is important to me. I purchased several Speedball brand nibs to find the one I liked best; all were of excellent quality and write well. They hold a lot of ink without dripping, and they hold up to pretty hard use. These are excellent nibs, and at less than two dollars, almost free! I'll be purchasing more for the calligraphy I do.

Comments about Speedball Lettering Nibs:
Nice quality and variety, but I wonder if a larger pack would be more beneficial. I am new to calligraphy and discovered quickly that I need some smaller nibs for detail work.
