A fellow posted, on "another board", about a friend having purchased the remains of a stationary store, which turned out to be the John Holland Co. of Cincinnati. He then pointed back to a pen turners forum, where he initially posted the info and pics. The pics are at the bottom of page one and top of page two, but it certainly is an eye-opener.

 

Worth a look, I think.

I think that definitely meets the definition of "hoard".

 

Wow.


Please join the Mabie Todd Swan project where I am trying to sort out the undocumented mess that is American Mabie Todd's from the 1930's. The last pens that MT seemed to advertise were the "Eternal" pens, and then the company put out a wide range of different styles, shapes, sizes and filling systems before eventually closing up shop. I invite you to post your pictures of your American pens

OMG. I can't believe the typo in the subject line! <insert embarrassment emoticon>

 

Fixed, I do believe. Thanks, Marc.
