As you remember from my post of 30 March, I have been providing old working ball point pens to the TV show Mad Men which takes place in the 60s. This is continuing however, they did say they were sending something for me.What a surprise, opened up the box and found a working Vendorama Ball Point Pen vending machine. It still has the key, still has 35 original pens and still works after almost 50 years. Yes, the coffee mug was included. To say that we were surprised with this package which weighted about 40 pounds is an understatement. I want to thank Ellen Freund and her whole staff for this great gift. I will be watching season 4 of Mad Men this year, you should to. Oh, don't forget to add one to your collection.
Crikey - clearly one good turn deserves another :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome George! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThis has been a nice surprise. Just sent another package of items for a shot of some young kids doing their homework.
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!! I'd be drooling if it was Pentel.... :) But it is still most excellent. Kudos to you, and your generosity with respect to the show.
