The Spring 2008 issue of The Pennant is in the mail and some of you should be getting your copy any day now depending on your proximity to Kansas and the good graces of your local postmasters. We've got lots of pen show coverage in this issue so some of you might even see yourselves in the magazine!

In addition to that, we have part 2 of our Diamond Point series on the history of that company as told to David Moak by a member of the owning family of the company. John Danza opens up a time capsule for us with a Sheaffer V-Mail kit from World War II and and Bruce Speary gives us a look at inkmaker pens over the years. And, on the opinion side, Adam Frank tells us why he isn't a pen collector--you'll have to read it to understand.

All of that and the usual features you've come to expect in The Pennant.
