The Speedball No. 5 Artist Pen Set – 2962 is designed for artists and makers who want more than a single-purpose calligraphy tool. With two pen holders and a varied nib assortment, it gives you the flexibility to move between calligraphy, lettering, illustration, poster-making, sketching, mapping, and detailed line work with one compact set.
The set includes 2 pen holders — 1 Standard Pen Holder and 1 No. 102 Crow Quill Pen Holder — plus 9 nibs: B1, B3, B5 from the B-Series, C0, C2, C4 from the C-Series, and No. 102 Crow Quill, No. 56, and No. 513EF pointed pen nibs. The B and C nibs feature triple reservoirs for increased ink capacity and smoother, longer uninterrupted ink flow, while the pointed nibs are designed to provide maximum control.
In practical terms, the C-Series nibs are well suited to Roman capitals, Foundational hand, and Italics, while B-Series nibs work well for Gothic and outline lettering. The pointed nibs expand the set further into sketching, cartooning, mapping, and finer drawing applications. That combination is what makes this set especially appealing if you like to combine writing and drawing in the same creative workflow.
