Fountain Pen Hospital - Holiday Pen Expo
Did anyone attend the Fountain Pen Hospital Holiday Pen Expo on 12/3 - 12/5?
I was able to make my way there on 12/5, the shop is quite impressive to say the least! They have a wide array of manufacturers and styles to choose from and the staff is well educated on the products they sell. I was foaming at the mouth preparing to purchase one or two Mont Blanc's but I had to leave because I had business to conduct uptown. Just was curious to see if anyone else made it to the expo or had ever visited the Fountain Pen Hospital. -Frankie |

Unfortunately no... :(
If I visit NYC I would definitely check it out. They are very international "friendly". |

This was my only time visiting them, if you are ever in NYC I would have to say that they are a MUST SEE! Wish there were more boutiques like that around.

BTW Frankie did you put your name down for their annual catalog? It's pen porn cover to cover!

Oh you betcha! I have received two of their catalogs before the expo. Being that I had plenty of time to digest the catalogs when I was exploring around their shop I saw pretty much every brand and every pen pictured in their catalogs. I actually felt at home so to speak. -Frankie |

Never been there but it's a great place to purchase from. Just received two of their catalogus. Gave one to a Lodge buddy who is also a pen nut.
