I am a pen
collector... although some would say I am a pen acquirer.
"Collector" is reserved, it seems, for people who have a
theme to
their loot-- 1950s Parkers with metal bodies, or pens with transparent
bodies. I am less specific. I like fountain pens of
many
kinds. I'm not a miser, either-- I don't mind people looking
at
my pens. I figure you're all greater than arm's length away
and
not likely to break them by looking.
Some of the pens shown here belong to other people, too. I've had
them in my hands, usually for repair but in some cases they used to be
mine and have gone on to other owners. These pens you will know
because the text beside them is a different colour.
Some of the ones I currently hold are for sale-- this is
indicated in the profile, but there is a separate page for the objects for sale
as well (some of the ones that aren't specifically for sale are open to
offers-- I'm not made of stone). You can also sort through this
collection by decade.
If there's a
not picture, I haven't gotten around to getting a link set up yet.
If there is a picture, click on it for more information.
