Hello All,

Does anyone have any information about pen collectors' clubs or similar operating in Australia ?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Hi Jim,

I think there used to be a couple, but that may not be the case now. I live in rural QLD, so I never really investigated the subject very far, because I knew I could never attend anything.

In July I had some contact with the organizer of the annual Melbourne Pen Show. I've never attended, but he informed me that the show is on the 19th November 2006 at the Ridges River Walk Hotel in Bridge Road, Richmond.

I have just e-mailed him to see if there is any further info. I'll PM you anything if I hear more. From there, you may be able to find out more about clubs etc.

Thank you so much for that information Phthalo.

I see from your blog that you may be a fellow "small pen" enthusiast. Very nice list .I have PM'd you on a related matter.

All the best
Jim

There's a Melbourne Pen Show?

Would be much appreciated if you could post any more information you get here, I would be interested as well.

Apparently so! I'll certainly relay anything I hear from the organizer.

Hi, Phthalo - I have been following up on your tip about the Show and if I receive any additional information, I'll post it here too.
Cheers,
John
