My Pen Collection

Never thought about my pens as a collection, but I suppose they are. From left to right

3503 Pencil
3302 TT Pen
2802 Pen Custom made for FutureShape given to me for being a good customer
8001 Pen/Pencil without box was my grandfathers. I use this pen every day.

I would also like to mention the cross factory is literally 3 mins and maybe 2 miles from my house. They have a nice gift shop and give tours of the production line.

That is a great story!

I have used Cross pens for the last 45 years. There was a time where a Cross was considered the pocket "identifier" of men of good tastes. For some it still is.

My compliments on a lovey Cross collection!

I don't know why, but I have a Cross FP in 14K that is one of the best writers that I have ever written with.

Lovely!

good stuff. Makes you not lose your pen and think more about what you write.

I remember when every new Lincoln car owners manual came with a cross pen with the Lincoln logo on the clip. We were buying 20 a week at auctions and I had a 4"round roll of the pens.

Always good pens and easy and cheap for refills.

Thanks for sharing.
