Tour the Pelikan Museum Archive in Hannover, Germany

[@tommasosantojanni]

I want to go visit! Planning a trip to Hanover!

[@MarcellHobbs]

I wanted my Pelikan, received my Pelikans, but now appreciate my Pelikans even more but learning the history. Thanks so much for sharing.

It's great to see and hear the history. I'm glad that Pelikan has kept using the building versus tearing it down and putting in some modern design. There was so much more character and charm in the old buildings. I liked how Willie made a point about how few machines there were and the work being done by people. I think there is something to be said for people doing the work.

Some pictures of 1930 were taken in wide angles. Amazing!

[@TXGRunner]

That was fantastic. How amazing the company and all those artifacts survived the Franco-Prussian War, two world wars, the Cold War, and reunification...and just yesterday a guy from Texas (me) bought a brand new Pelikan at an office supply store in Poland. Thanks for sharing your tour.

Thank you for this wonderful report from Pelikan Factory, a lot of history, I remember I used it this products in the 70's in Peru (South America), when I was in the school, the products were really good, last for ever and make everything right. Thank you Guys from Germany, you make really good Products.

27:45 why is it not surprising that Henry Ford had ties to Germany in 1935 lol

[@demeanor76]

thank you so much for the tour

[@freespirit995]

Thank you for a fascinating video. As a devoted Pelikan fan- with many, many of their pens (more than I care to admit to!) I found this video really informative and interesting. One day I must try to travel to Hannover and visit the wonderful factory. It would be great if you could do more historical videos, surveying the different stages of Pelikan pen evolution. Thank you once again for posting this!

[@JannyHaak]

Thank you for the video!

[@Jcrz88]

I just bought a pelican because of this video

[@awdphotography8846]

They need to do a pen based on that stained glass window!

[@Supra_Mare_Cultro_Bloke]

How many of you here actually was looking for Admok 800?

[@p.k.5531]

nice vid

[@susanbradford4543]

I hope you realized you should have worn a suit. If your suppliers and consequently your hosts wear suits and ties, it shows a lack of respect for them and the occasion when you arrive in jeans and a down coat. Especially to an old, traditional and revered company like Pelican. I think it paints the US casualness in a poor light.

[@ThiagoMedeirosGeo]

Susan Bradford I was about to comment the same. I have studied / worked in Germany and Japan and whenever we would have American guests at the company, many seniors would joke that we would know when the Americans arrived, because they would be dressed as if they were going to the corner pub. It's not like the Germans or Japanese would find their attire actually offensive, but it surely lent them a sense of disheveled lack of reverence. The short sleeves here are particularly disturbing.

[@Stitchxavi]

We are American. Our culture is different. I wouldn’t expect a European to dress down for us. Let us celebrate our own unique ways.

[@susanbradford4543]

@@StitchxaviAll very PC but When in Rome we should follow their lead. I for one am embarrassed for them.
