We are in our 7th year and it is going to be bigger and better than ever, with a large number of vintage Exhibitors, together the manufsacturers and representatives of many of the modern pens and pencils, and much, much more.

Typically the show has attracted dealers from all over the world primarily because of its ease of movement by air. Referred to as the crossroads to the world the New York - New Jersey area has always been a stopping point for air travelers and a major destination for visitors and tourists. Now with the strength of the euro many European buyers are flocking to the states for their purchases and we welcome them.
