DAVID,
WHERE AND HOW DO SERIOUS COLLECTORS FIND THESE CACHES OF PENS? I'VE ALWAYS BEEN AMAZED AT THIS!
THANKS,
LEE

Beautiful pen, the only thing I have issue with is the metal section. It looks out of proportion and style for the rest of the pen!
An ebonite or black plastic would look much better, even a section like a Graf von Faber-castell would complete the look. The present section is too slim and long!

David,

Have you given any thought about the Adipoint Stub for $40?

Hi

Most years of late has been President's Day weekend, which iirc this year would be Feb 19th weekend.

However, also iirc, Susan Wirth's show calendar puts it a week earlier weekend of Feb 12.

Anyone know which it is?

The show website has not been updated.

regards

David

Hello David,
A while back I purchased a Wasp Addipoint and the cap and barrel are in great shape. However the EF steel nib is bent...I much prefer a med or broad nib. Doyou have any spares there? The section looks like ebonite or black plastic. Can you help?


Thanks,
Lee




Posted this a couple weeks ago on Zoss list. Most of the text is in the large picture to load (be patient if slow connection). Figure worth another peek. There some lesson or another here about approaches to collecting, though not sure I know exactly which lesson ;)

Certainly, it does not hurt to post one's interests online. Certainly, pen shows have benefits hard to match in online approach alone to collecting.
