Goodbye 2021- Hello 2022! Happy New Year! I hope 2022 finds you and yours healthy and well! It was an interesting year pen wise as well! There were nine total pen shows that ran this past year. We were fortunate enough to attend seven of them (not San Fran, nor Dallas). Attendance was good, considering the pandemic continued all of 2021. Most Pen Pals that came to shows were very enthusiastic, and very happy to see pens up close and personal again! In Fact- Our "Home Show" is only two weeks away (Philly Pen Show- Jan 14-16th)! As for Federalist...

So Far, each show has been better than the previous one!  There will be 7 shows remaining this year, starting with San Francisco next weekend. Fed Pens will be attending 4 of them (Boston, Chicago, Detroit,...

It's our 6th Anniversary Sale! It's hard to believe my corner of the (Retail) pen world is 6 years old! When I first discovered the (Fountain) Pen Community 15 years ago (I've collected BP/RB Pens far longer..), little did I know I would be turning my "re-found" hobby into a FT Business Venture! I am grateful to so many people- customers, distributors, makers, and even fellow dealers for welcoming me in to this close knit community of Pen Pals! I've come a long way from the above pic- 2 tables at the 2015 DC Pen Show, where my retail venture...
