Merry Christmas

 Who would not want a 1960s pocket protector full of pens and pencils from the 60s for Christmas? Show up to work or school after Christmas sporting a pocket protector full of pens and pencils.
Starting on the left we have a Hasbro 6" plastic ruler. Then we have a green and blue BIC F-25s along with a red medium BIC. A ball point pen must be in the protector along with a Sheaffer School fountain pen. A BIC AF-49 Accountant Pen in blue would be required. Next would be your Scripto K780 and last is a Sterling Plastic 6" Slide Rule. What else would you need? Have a Merry Christmas.

More Stuff Around The Desk

Most all these items have been on the blog before but I am now keeping them around my desk. Top left are my best Scripto K780s , K760s and K750s. To the right are more K780s plus T220 pens and P360 pencils plus a few others.  Bottom left are my BICs for the desk to include collector additions, Auto pens and the metal BIC pen. Last are the Cross Solos. These are not made any more but are available on EBay and can be bought for a nice price. I think I have all the colors. Add all these pens to your collection.

December New Itens

Lets start on the left with my newest Nock pen holder. This one is the Lookout and has turned out to be one of my favorite. On top is a brand new 1980s Pentel PSD5. The one I had broke so Santa came through. Next is a niece Papermate Profile and a Executive refillable Flair. Every collection should have one of these. Cross refills are required to get the Flair working. Then we have a new Parker Jotter with a Indian pattern on the barrel. This should put me at at about 51 different Parker Jotters in the collection. Next is a Hi Tec C Coleto, white with gold trim from JetPens. Last is a Kickstarter project I signed up for. Most of the Kickstarter pens that I have been getting all use a Pilot Hi Tec C refill. I like those but sometimes I would prefer a wider point. This Takumi pens fits the bill. They list 50 different refills that will work in this pen and I have found a few more. You use the wrench to screw in the back of the pen to fit short or long refills I am using a Pentel EnterGel 0.5mm refill. Add all these great items to your collection and Please have a Merry Christmas.

My Desk 2014

I still have plenty of stuff to post but I was thinking I should show my desk where all these office and school items must pass. Can I get any work done? Yes I can but it take a while to get started. There must be 300 or 400 items on my desk and it it hard to keep up with it. The picture does not show the walls full of stuff or the cabinets to the right and left of the desk. I am currently working on some animal ordinances here in Killeen so I have other things to do. I can still sit at my desk and look for that one pen or pencil that is not in it's place. Hope your desk is cleaner and add all this great stuff to your collection.
