Welcome to- The Fountain Pen Community!

I'mmmm back! As many of you know, His
Nibs.com was down for a bit because of some
computer woes, followed by a brief vacation
(3 days) with Mrs. Nibs. We took a driving
vacation to southwestern PA, through the
Adirondacks (I love mountain driving) and
along Rte. 30 -- the old Lincoln
Highway http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~jlin/lincoln/.

We left our itinerary back at the palace, and
just stopped somewhere as the mood struck.
Some of those strikes took us to the Harley-Davidson factory in York
http://www.harley-davidson.com/wcm/content/pages/factory_tours/york.jsp?locale=en_US;
the Jimmy Stewart
Museum http://www.jimmy.org/ in Indiana, PA; and the Johnstown
Flood Museum http://www.jaha.org/FloodMuseum/history.html in...um...Johnstown.

On to pens. Delta pens. First, I was informed
by YAFA that they won't be importing more of
the gorgeous desk
pens http://www.hisnibs.com/desk_pen.htm from Italy due to
price increases. Consequently, what they have
in stock is it for the U.S.
Once their stock is gone, it's gone. As I
write this, there are fewer than a dozen of the
single fountain pen version, such as the one
I'm using in the PBS
interview http://www.hisnibs.com on the homepage, about half a
dozen of the double sets, and only one left
of the single ballpoint version. If you'd
like to reserve one, please email me.

The newest Delta series is the Aromatherapy.
I expect my first shipment to arrive in about
a week or so...just in time for the
Washington, D.C. Supershow

Delta desksets being retired in the U. S.



The very last of these gorgeous desk pen sets
are available now, as YAFA (Delta's U. S.
distributor) will no longer be carrying them.
This is one of my favorite pens and I use it
on a daily basis when writing notes to customers.

Delta Aromatherapy



As my initial order of these has not yet
arrived, I can only show sales copy at the
moment on the website. However, I had a
chance to examine the pens at the Stationery
Show in New York in May....and they're
heavenly!
