i missed friday, but i went with elaine on saturday. it was nice to see richard and barbara binder, ron and robyn zorn, paul errano, david issacson, mike bloom, terry brack, tim daly and others who i have unintentionally left out. i got a morrison lever fill in chased hard rubber, a waterman eyedropper, a sheaffer--with a triumph nib, and..... I WON THE CLASSIC LEGEND PROTOTYPE, TOURMALINE FIRE, FOUNTAIN PEN!! IT IS GORGEOUS!!!

THANKS TERRY, MIKE, BARBARA AND RICHARD BINDER FOR MAKING THIS SUCH A WONDERFUL SHOW EXPERIENCE!

Congratulations!!!! Please post a picture of the pen you won, it sounds delish!

Hey, good for you! Congrats. And yes, a photo please.

sorry guys, i am a luddite...but richard binder has the pen on his site--www.richardspens.com. go to pens for sale and then click on the classic pens. it is the the tormaline fire. divine....

Very nice. I'm not too familiar with the Classic line but hear nothing but good things. Enjoy.

Wonderful! It has found a great home and you deserve the best of luck.

Very cool, congratulations. Looks like a gorgeous pen!!

Congratulations on your lovely prize. May you use it in health for a very long time.

Congratulations! It was great to sit there and chat with you for a while.

That's great! Congratulations!

wow. way cool!

You would be a poker champion. (Maybe you already are.)

Pictures, please!

Congratulations on winning and getting some interesting pens to boot. I'd love to see a pic of the pen as tourmaline has so many possible colors that it could be.

i do not own a digital camera....please go to richard's site to view the pen.

thank you for all the good wishes.

velma, it was great to see and talk to you. have fun using the new additions to your collections!

With all respect to RB(and I havva lot)....from another RB!....I'd guess the pic on his site doesn't do it justice, it's more of an 'artist's impression'.

I very nearly bought one....it's great to hear it was won by a FPN regular

Just wish I could have been there, too!

Congratulations on winning your pen!

I didn't find the pen on the site...maybe a link to it if someone has it would be nice.

Congratulations on your new pen! I am actually thinking about buying one of the Legend prototype colors, and the tourmaline fire is one that has caught my eye (mainly because it is green, and I like green pens). My question though, my seem a bit odd. What kind of green is it? Is it masculine, feminine, neutral? I cannot tell from the website. I know that I have seen pens online and in catalogues that look great, but in person, all I can think about is the fact that it is a "girl's pen." The Levenger True Writer Kyoto comes to mind. It looks fine in the catalogue, but in person, it is clearly a female pen. So, before I bought the tourmaline fire pen, I just thought I would ask an owner about it. I hope you understand where I am coming from with this question.

There is a photo of the pen in THIS THREAD - it's the first pen. As was mentioned before, the photo doesn't do the pen justice. It's a beautiful green. I don't see it as particularly a "girls pen". In fact, it's rather large and to me it looks more like a men's pen.

Congratulations, Aunt Rebecca! I'm glad you won. Enjoy your new pens!

Oh, wow! I love the color. You are very lucky!

Aunty R., wonderful!

Congratulations!

Warmest regards, Wim
