Still Online Only-Still Growing! Greetings Pen Pals! It has been a tough year.. Covid19 is a concern, and we express our best wishes for everyone's health and safety! The last 2020 pen show to run (with no interruption) was the Long Island Show back in March, and all shows since then have been cancelled. The Detroit Pen Show is still on the schedule for November, but that looks unlikely given the situation. It is quite possible the first show back could be either Baltimore or Long Island in March(One Full Year!)! Most stores/dealers have adapted. Online sales are growing! Many...

Pen Shows? We have now seen the sixth pen show affected by the Covid19 crisis- four have been cancelled altogether (Atlanta, St Louis, Miami, DC), and two rescheduled (Raleigh-AUG, Chicago-SEPT). It is not by accident that the DC show is called "The Supershow". It is the most important show of the year. Many dealers and vendors from around the world come to this event (some their only US show). The fact that is has been cancelled (without a reschedule date) speaks volumes. This show can literally "Make or Break" someone's year as far as profit/loss goes!I am not being selfish....
