Hello, everyone.

I'm happy to join the FPnuts. I'm relatively new to fountain pens, but I find that I can't let go of the novelty of writing with a fountain pen. I'm 62 and learned to use one in grammar school, but was such a horrible student that I wrote a line only when threatened. Now? I use my Aurora 88 every day.

I'm waiting on a new Edison Collier in silver marble to complement my other pens. Just a few, but growing. My wife and I will frequent antique and consignment shops looking for fountain pens!

So, thanks for the opportunity to participate, and take care.

Tony

Welcome and great to see you on this site!
 

You will find the folks here at the FP Board really fun, knowledgable and down right the best in the business/collecting hobby. David, our fearless leader, is quite the fountain of knowledge but there are others who are equally as knowledgable and willing to give you a helping hand too. This is a very friendly site; I have noticed that for the most part, people here check their egos at the door, very refreshing    ;)
