to shoot:

Good evening,

A quick plug before the mayhem begins.

As noted yesterday (i think), i did cash in heckuvalot of Frequent Flier miles to buy a ticket to Raleigh for the pen show this coming weekend.

Most of you have seen some of my pen pics. They are not art work like Riepl's, but they do show most of the key details of pens. I have imaged about 5500 vintage pens, lifesized in print at 300 dpi. I always seek to grow the digital pen image collection.

If you have some nifty vintage pens- especially focused collections- please drop me a line or bring them to the show for the photoshoot. Any vintage USA made pen not already imaged is needed. Rare, funky, fancy only adds to the charm.

Side note- Pen shows are must see for the collector of pens. Worth a few hour drive if you are anywhere nearby. Stay the weekend (hotel is cheap) and hang out at nite with the pen nuts. See more pens than you can handle. LEARN about the hobby and about our chosen collectable.

Terry Mawhorter runs great shows , which include Ohio in fall. His shows are well run and might be the only shows left (i don't insist) to have a pen auction still.

Hope to see you.

Of course, i'll be at the www.vacumania.com table.

best
