This pile landed in Syracuse same week as the somewhat heftier pen pile I posted yesterday.
Some nice stuff by Chilton, Sheaffer, Parker, Waterman and others. Lots of humble material, but when a collection arrives, one usually grabs the bunch. Best pen in bunch is the big Chilton Black Lined with red end plugs.

I found some pens.
I used to wish I could find old pens in... quantity
These days it happens time to time. Always fun.
This bunch plopped onto my desk. What could I do? I bought 'em. 120 or so.

Then there's the other 60 or so from a third collection, but that's a tale for another day.

Yes, I know. No posts here in ten days. Well, my newly upgraded hospital shifts have been clobbering me. But, I did manage to get the latest Vacumania.com website update online. 50 grand old pens. Gem Vacumatic, Balance, Lady Sheaffer, Snorkel and more.
Have a peek at a bit of what's been added.
Oh yeah... even a modern-ish Omas.

VIDEO and Pic. Happy Red Sheaffer David.
Hi,
Just picked up a truly grand wee pen set, a 1920's Sheaffer flat-top "Cherry Red" celluloid Pygmy. Have wanted one a long time. Hard to find clean. This one pops.
Details and shmooze in this very rough rushed video shot with my usual 7MP Sony, just before I raced out the door to work. The video should open in your browser, though you likely will need a fast connection and time for your buffer to... buff.
