Thanks to Eric and Scott for throwing a terrific show under seriously adverse weather conditions.

All the following pens came from a single purchase of a collection liquidation, save for the Wahl Gregg pen (flat-top in Kashmir celluloid). Some significant vintage and a whole heapin' helpin' of quality near-modern. Might be the first time I've purchased more new than old, but sometimes you just cannot say, "no".

Nice.  That's quite a collection of modern Duofolds all in one fell swoop.  What is that peacock-esque one on the top just to the right of the mottled red/black?

That Blackbird looks strange, the oriental blue (I think MT&C called it) was only (or at least so I had thought) on the model pictured on page 169 of Lambrou's FPW.

Nice find

Is it me, or did you just turn that Norman Rockwell around in two days?

Funny story to that...
