New BIC 4 Ways

 

It has been some time since we could say that something new was coming to our stores from BIC. Five new BIC 4  way pens. The picture only has four and it is the silver green that I am missing. In the picture is the silver purple, silver pink, silver blue and the silver gray. As I said I am missing the silver green. These new ones are all made in France. I already have the BIC 2 way in most of these colors but I did not know that we would be getting new 4 ways and just in time for the holidays. Add them all to your collection.

NEW METALIC BIC 4 WAYS ARE NOW AT STAPLES!!!

Twiggy Pens

 

I do wish I had this display. I currently only have one carded Twiggy pen and they are not cheap. I don't know if someone owns this display or it is just a picture from the past but it is a nice example of a 60s counter top display. If you can find a Twiggy pen add it to your collection. They are very easy to refill so if you can find one you can start using it.

New BICs For The Collection

 

Here are more BICs for the collection. Some are hard to find like the Pack of BIC Whirls on the right side and the two T-Rex BICs on the bottom. Its hard to believe there are so many BICs out there. Want to that Cherry over in Thailand for all these great BICs. Add them all to your collection.

More Pen Storage

 

This one is used but still in good condition. It looks like it may have been used as a display for cosmetics at one time. These type of plastic pen displays are not cheap and hard to find so if I can fit it in my collection I will. This one has six non removable shelves. Each of the shelves has nine compartments. I am currently using the display just to lay out loose pens and pencils until I find their permanent home. I am running out of space down here so there is always plenty of work as I try and find the best way to display my collection. All cabinets like this to your collection. 

More Loose Items

 

Here we have more loose items that just seem to show up down in the supply room.  On the left is one of four Godzilla erasers.  Top center is a Pentel metal pen box showing the outline of a Pentel R-50.  The R-50 has been the go to office pen overseas for years.  Not sure what was in this gold color case but it works fine for my remaining R-50s.  Below the Pentel are the Featherwriter II felt tip red pens from the Blackfeet Indian Writing Company. None of them work but a nice piece of pen history.  On the right are a nice BIC school set which includes a 0.7mm pencil and a BIC Whirl pen.  Add all these great pens and pencils to your collection.

Nice Lindy Pen

 

Not only does the pen work fine but the plastic box just looks like it came right out of the 50s or early 60s. This pen is headed to Mad Men to get some camera time. The Lindy ball point retractable pens were not as well known as the Lindy Stick pens but Lindy did have at least 10 different models if not more. I may do a post about the different models of retractable pens that Lindy made. I have managed to get at least one of each type of Lindy pens working at one time or another and they all have turned out to be good pens. This gold pen was used for advertising for a radio station. Add all the great Lindy pens to your collection.

More Scripto Wordmasters

 

I had to jump when I saw this great Scripto Wordmaster counter top display with 12 pencils for sale. Just over $60.00 bucks. This is my second Wordmaster display and most all the pencils work fine after 67 years. The cardboard display is in great condition so the price was right. I have already given one pencil away. These pencils have gold plated clips, bands and points. The original price was $1.00. May have a give-away real soon on one of these great pencils. Add them to your collection.
