Full Version: USA Townsend or Century 2?

Are there any reliable dealers that might have a NOS USA-manufacture Cross Townsend or Century 2 model left? I would not do the eboy route, but would appreciate any suggestions as to someone who might still have one or more of these USA models still hanging around. Any direction will be greatly appreciated.

I would check with Pen Hero, especially the pages in Pen Hero's Cross section. If you contact him/them through their email us link, you'll hear back pretty soon.

Also, refillczar on these boards works for Cross and can tell you where everything is made. Cross is still making more in the US than I realized (which is why I've bought 2 Cross pens in the past month). In one of his messages, he mentioned that the Townsend is indeed now made in China, but maybe the Century II isn't, or isn't completely.

Thanks! I have orderded from PenHero before, and he's top rate. I'm hopeful there are a few of the the Townsend and Century 2 models floating about the pen ether. Just have to keep searching!
