Pen Stores in Houston

[kaos]

Hello All,

 

I live in Anchorage, Alaska, which has no pen stores. I will be in Houston, Texas on business and was wondering if there are any good pen stores that I can visit to look for Pelikan and Signum fountain pens?

 

Web sites are great, but I would like to handle the pens before I select which one(s) to purchase.

 

Thanks for the help.

There's a very nice Paradise Pens in the major shopping mall called "The Galleria." It's a rather corporate environment (the mall) but you might enjoy it anyway, since it's clean and indoors and is large enough to have more than "just" the typical mall stores. They have lots of new pens and inks available.

I second the Dromgoole’s recommendation. If you haven’t completed your trip yet, you should stop by Paradise Pens in The Galleria, but DO NOT miss Dromgoole’s! They offer the brand pens you mentioned, plus many other brands – and, unlike PP, often at a discount. Larry Dromgoole & Co. are very knowledgeable & helpful. They will let you dip test pens in any of the huge selection of inks they carry. Plus they carry a great selection of paper: Clairefontaine, Rhodia, G. Lalo, Crane, etc.

 

A true endangered species: a wonderful, neighborhood, bricks-and-mortar, service oriented, family-owned business. No affiliation, just a very satisfied repeat customer.

There are at least THREE major pen stores either IN, or Next-To Galleria. Enjoy them all, if you want an expensive pen retail.......

That said, Dromgoole's for ink, and around the corner from them (1 blk E, 1.5 blk N; Antone's) is the BEST PO'BOY IN HOUSTON.

Don't miss that.
