join us for the 6th Annual international event. We have more than 100 exhibit tables filled with pens, pens, pens, and more. We have exciting give-aways for those lucky attendees and there are prizes and drawings set for every half hour throughout the show.

Stylus Magazine, our sponsor has graciously donated some exciting gifts for our daily drawings, in addition to subscriptions to the magazine. Joe Cali has made, in my opinion, one of his finest pens for one lucky winner. The pen, fashioned in the colors of New York and with the loving care that is given by Joe Cali to all of his pens, makes it as special as you can get.

Barbara Carpentier, owner of PenHouse, has donated two of her special items for our drawings, one is for children and that is her Ghost Writers, INK Invisible Ink Kit and the other special item is her exclusive Wine Glass Charms Gold with Vintage Gold Plated Nibs and semi-precious stones. Both items can be seen on her website at http://www.penhouseusa.com Take a look you will enjoy the site.

The auction, scheduled for 8:30 p.m. on Saturday evening has evolved into a very impressive offering of fine pens. It was great fun sorting and listing all of the beautiful pens that will be auctioned off and I am sure that there is something for everyone in this auction. Don't miss this exciting event, new for our venue.

Anyone needing directions, email me at the above address.

We are looking forward to seeing all of you this weekend.

New York/New Jersey Pen Show

Yipeee!

Wow, that's a lot of prizes!

and more, a limited number of autographed copies of the Mabie In America book, written by David L. Moak will be available at the registration table during the show. I only have a very limited number so if anyone out there is interested, let me know asap and I will hold one for you.

I had a chance to review a sample of the finished book and it is outstanding. A wonderful reference book with an extraordinary amount of high quality images, in depth history of the company, the family and the pens. This book was 10 years in the making and it shows in the finished product. Even those collectors not focused on Mabie Todd pens would have a hard time resisting this book, so hurry and get a copy before they are all sold out.

See you at the show.
