My family will be taking a nice vacation the week of March 3rd.
We are taking our son to Disney! We can’t wait!
And the way that Ohio has treated us this winter, it will be awfully nice to be in Florida for a week!
Usually with vacations, I still try to keep up with a few emails, but on this trip, I’m going to do something that I rarely ever do, and not look at emails at all. I really need a vacation from my computer!
So I will not be fielding emails until we get back on the 10th.
Hopefully when we get back, spring will have arrived early in Ohio!
I’m very happy to announce that the Edison Beaumont Pneumatic has been nominated for one of Pen World Magazine’s Annual Reader’s Choice Awards! That’s two Reader’s Choice nominations for Edison in the last three years!
The Beaumont Pneumatic was nominated within the category of "Best Vintage-Inspired Pen".
I encourage you to cast your ballot for your favorite pens within the Reader’s Choice Awards, as they always recognize the best of what’s happening within the pen community. The ballots are within the pages of the February Edition of Pen World Magazine, which was recently mailed to subscribers.
If you do not subscribe, you can find the magazine on newsstands.
It is with great pleasure that I announce our newest retailer in Canada! Wonder Pens is now carrying the Edison Production Line! Our Canadian customers seeking to avoid international shipping and hassle now have a great option!
If you subscribe to our blog, you would have received a request about a month ago asking for feedback from our Canadian customers as to which Canadain retailer each of you like to see carrying the Edison Line. Overwhelmingly (by a huge margin), Wonder Pens was the highest recommended.
And there’s little surprise from me. Although I’ve never met Jon and Liz Chan live, we’ve done business previously, and I’ve been following their blog for a while now. They definitely embody the qualities that we look for in our retailers. We are always quite choosy about who carries our line, and our current Canadian representation is no exception!
Head on over to their webstore to take a look at their Edison (as well as other) offerings and be sure to check out their blog. Or if you are in the Toronto area, they have an excellent brick and mortar location.
It was great to see lots of our regulars from the West Coast, and to meet some new friends!
Unfortunately, we were literally packed to the absolute maximum when it comes to what we could fly with, which means that I couldn’t pack my camera. However, even if I had the camera with me, I honestly don’t think that I would have had much time for photos! We were awfully busy!
If you are expecting an email from me, I’ll do my best to get through all emails today, but there’s a sizable amount, so if you don’t hear from me today, definitely tomorrow.
For those of you who would like to see some good photo coverage of what you might have missed at the LA Pen Show, AltecGreen did a great job of documenting the show, and posted his photos here on a thread at FPGeeks.
We’ll be heading to the LA Pen Show shortly! See the video below to take a look at the inventory that we’ll be bringing….
(if you can’t see the video below, click here)
If you are attending the show, all of the pens above will be there! If you can’t make the show, feel free to email us to inquire about any pens that you might have interest in.
We will be returning on Tuesday of next week, so if I’m slow with emails, you’ll know why.
We are very happy to announce a new material that is is now available in the Production Line Collier!
This new material will be called Blue Steel Acrylic. It’s a very nice deep blue with lots of depth, and a rather subtle swirl.
Since this pen is part of the Production Line, remember that Edison will not sell this pen direct. The retailers that carry the Production Line will be selling this pen. You can find these retailers here. All retailers have placed their orders for this pen, so they all should be ready to ship!
So this makes 4 nice materials that can be had in the Production Line Collier!
By the way…..do you notice something interesting when you look at the photo above? If you look closely at the Antique Marble Collier on the right, you’ll notice that the color of the Antique Marble is a little darker.
Some of you might remember when we made an announcement about 2 years ago regarding a slight color change to the Collier. Back then, the manufacturer that we were getting the Antique Marble from changed the color to be just a little bit lighter. Well, we have good news! The original darker amber color is now back! I personally like this darker color a lot more, and I think that most of our fans agree.
So as of now, the Blue Steel and original Antique Marble materials are available in the Collier!
