Hello everyone,

I'm a small-scale collector, but a huge fan, of vintage fountain pens. Currently have a black Parker 45 with steel cap and gold trim; a Waterman Phineas of uncertain age but stellar condition; and a newly-acquired Parker 21, burgundy body, missing the clip from the cap. Oh, and I found another 45 for my oldest son, so he's in the club too. I look forward to some good conversation, information, and photos of course! !

What the hell, I'm up late - Welcome! I'm probably the least knowledgeable pen guy on the board, but this place is the real deal. Enjoy it for a while and ask questions when you need.

This is the serious stuff. Good stuff.

Tim, I'm in Pullman, biding my time while dear wife is grinding her way through grad school. And you're a bit north of me, I see.

My wife is a WSU alumni, currently working on her Masters. I feel your pain, neighbor.

We need hobbies to stay somewhat sane, don't we? I'm also into old bicycles, which take up a wee bit more room.
