Fountain Pens & Fine Writing

[MaytagMan]

I went to the San Francisco International Pen Show with Diamond Lion on Saturday. I was a good day, and I may or may not have picked up a bauble or two. Here's the haul ---



A bag from Rickshaw Bagworks


Retro 51 Seigaiha - an exclusive for Rickshaw


Gravitas Pens Universe


Schon Design Full Size Ultem


Carolina Pen Company / Jonathan Brooks custom resin


Desiderata Pen Co. BAMF


Which pen is mine? It is the one that says "Bad A$$ Motherfu**er on it"

Had and currently have. The pen was from my '11 V8 Vantage and currently own (last 5-6 years) a '12 Rapide.

I believe the DB9 also had a slot for the pen.

Here's a picture of the Vantage


With pen missing at the time:

Picked up a new TWSBI Diamond 580ALR (Broad) for a work project...







I'm going to start our department sending out handwritten postcards to students at home with positive messages, etc. Of course mine will be done with a fountain pen and bizarre ink colors. Next I need to finalize he design of the custom postcards and find local donors for ink and postcard stamps.
