FPH was nice enough to let me take pics...unfortunately i did not have my DSLR with me so sorry for the lower quality pics.


Krone is one of my favourite brands, in terms of their special editions..didnt have to wait long to see those as the Krone display is right in front of the door!

I also like Montegrappa...they had both the Ca$h and Riddler on display...i was hoping to see those as well as the Stallone Chaos (which was not on display).

The new MontBlanc M line..looks fantastic! I am not sure I like the magnetic closure or the fact that you cant cap it but it does look great

There selection was incredible..every brand you can think ...and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable..i got to try a few pens...and i did not leave empty handed! I got one of my dream pens, the Visconti Homo Sapien!

Thanks for the photos.
That sounds like a place I must visit if I ever go to New York again. :)
