Not even close to such standards. One person I know has more Sheaffer Targas than I have pens I believe.

Then you need to get going dude!

Seems to me that a collection of your caliber must be documented.

I will bring my camera and do it for only 40% of your collection. But I could be talked down....

It'll be tough to reach Jim's photographic standards, though.

Not a negotiation tactic, but a sincere offer.

I have not heard from Jim so I am a bit taken aback!

I will now reduce my percentage to 39% of Jim's collection to professionally photograph and document it.

Jim's Sailors have matted. The ones from the left and the ones from the right got busy at night and I have the offspring to prove it. Flat top and rounded bottom. Ready for Miss Universe, anchor crown and all. But, what is it...???
