Year n' Half Later, 17 vintages, 12 moderns.

[KBeezie]

The current collection. Not all boxes shown obviously, just what I thought would look nice in there.

The Capped pens are ones currently inked.
The Doric inside the clear case is that way because the barrel is cracked (need to send it off).

There's a couple in there that I'm selling as well (but I already have threads elsewhere for them).

Got 12 Moderns (post-70s), and 17 vintage (70s and before), a couple hover around the '75 point in regards to dating.

Impressive! Though I think you should double down on your efforts for the next year n' half. ;-)

Double down? Like more of em? :P I was planning not going too much higher on the count and maybe trade around to more unique-to-me vintages.
