Best Scritp Pencils Of 2013

 
Posted by PicasaThis was another best of for 2013.I picked up this zippered case with all 1950s K780s and and K770s. I have since cleaned them up and moved some around but still this was a great fine. The original Scripto K780 was one of the best pencils ever made and is a classic that needs to be in every pencil collection. Add one today.

Best BIC Student Pack Ever

 
We have been showing plenty of new and old BIC pens on the blog and here is one of the best. This Student Bargain Pack on the right is my all time favorite BIC pen set. There is just something about the color combinations that you do not see in other BICs here in the USA. Four blue pens, two black, one green and one red. These are the only ones that I know of where you have two tone with the barrel a different shade from the cap. Hard to find and not cheap. The AF49 on the left is also a great pen to have. Add them all to your collection.

Best Pens For 2013

 
Hard to pick but I had the most fun with these. A Parker Jotter with a calendar from days long gone. This is in fact a new Parker Jotter from India. I finely got my Dad's Parker 51 working and what a great pen.Posted by Picasa  Turns out to be my best fountain pen. Hallmark felt tip pen. Don't know what type of wood this one is made of but it is not walnut like most my other Hallmarks. Next is a great new pencil with an old name. Wearever 0.5mm pencil from Rad and Hungry.  A Hero 360 fountain pen. I like this one because no matter how you pick it up the pen will writes.Very fine point. Last is my Christmas present for this year. A Parker 5th. Not sure why Parker thinks this is not a fine point felt tip pen with metal guide but it is still fun to write with. Add all these great pens and pencils to your collection. Can't wait till 2014.

Pentel Side Clickers

 
Most of these great pencils have been seen before but I have never had the 1980s complete set of five clear PD 245s all together. The problem has always been the hard to find green pencil. The book is the 1980s pentel catalog. These are some of the most collectible of all the Pentel pencils and still command high prices. Many new pentel collectors have gotten started collecting Pentel pencils by seeing them at blogs like Pencils 11. Germ was the best. Add these great pencils to your collection.Posted by Picasa

More Jotters!!

 
Her are two more Parker Jotters from India. On the left is the gold stainless steel pen which is just like the standard stainless steel one most of us already have in our collections except for the color. On the right is a Jotter with a real nice design. I believe this is one of three new designs sold in India. All the Jotters made and sold in India all seem to have very fine point refills. These two new pens will run about $10.00 each so add them to your collection.Posted by Picasa
