CHICAGO PEN SHOW NEWS

CHICAGO PEN SHOW NEWS - The 2008 Chicago Pen Show sponsored by KRONE, has its updated web site running at www.chicagopenshow.com. And while we are still working on the schedule and some other items, we are pleased to announce that this year’s show will feature a Parts and vintage pen repair tool auction starting on Friday night. We also will once again feature the pizza party on Thursday night, a dessert party on Saturday night and various seminar/workshops on Saturday.

 

We are excited to have Krone back as our main sponsor again this year. We are also excited to have Gregory H. Sachs and Stylus back as major sponsors along with Jimmy Dolive’s Total Office Products, the PCA, Judd Perlson’s Auction Sales, Pendemonium.com and Ed Hamilton’s Century Pens. And we are pleased to have the PCA with Linda Bauer holding the Pens for Kids program on Sunday morning. This is a great way of influencing the next generation of pen collectors and users.

 

We are still seeking additional sponsors and as they are signed up announcements will be made on our web site and on various pen boards. Anyone interested in a sponsorship position please contact Don, Dan or Mike.
