As we approach the end of the first full week of 2019 I thought it would be nice to reflect on pen activity in 2018. It was a busy year for me – a trip to Shanghai in April afforded me the opportunity to purchase a number of inexpensive, good quality fountain pens. The Commonwealth Pen Show in September was a big success for everyone and a lot of fun! While I do love collecting vintage fountain pens and pencils, I did purchase a few modern fountain pens in 2018 which I do enjoy. They include 2 Franklin Christophs, an Opus 88 Koloro with eye dropper fill and a big ebonite ASA from India. All great writers and reasonably priced. I would love to hear what your pen activities were in 2018 and any interesting purchases you made.
Happy Collecting!
