Hello from San Jose, CA.
Hello I am Leo, a pen collector.
I have been collecting pens since I was in elementary school. I am glad I found this forum since I want to sell and trade some of my pens.
Currently selling my Pelikan M600 Souveran Medium nib, Pilot custom 74 Broad Nib, and my Parker Vacumatic. I will be listing them in the for sale section be on the lookout for some wonderful images.

Welcome home.

Thank you jar, love your website really elegant.
Re: Hello from San Jose, CA.
We're glad to have you, although the above statement would mean a lot more if we knew what point in your life you are now. If you say high school it will mean something different than if you tell us you have just retired after a 40 year career with the CIA.Originally Posted by leothecollector

Jon Szanto, that would be awesome... I just recently graduated San Jose State University and I am beginning my career as an Agent not for the CIA but for a Insurance Agency (not as cool)

Re: Hello from San Jose, CA.
You are right in the stomping grounds of the Pan Pacific Pen Club (a very semi-formal pen group) and the San Francisco Pen Posse (a hilariously anarchic group of pen fanatics). You are lucky to be in that general vicinity, so if you don't already know about them, we can facilitate you getting involved. PPPC only has gatherings 4 times a year (I think) but they are always like mini pen shows, so there would be opportunities to sell pens, as well as buy them. SFPP meets almost every week, usually at a diner in Burlingame right near the airport. Seriously connected pen people in that group. Either way, it's a win.

Pan Pacific Pen Club will meet on January 11 on Stanford Campus.
Pen Posse at Peters Cafe regularly meets on Sundays in Millbrae. I don’t pretend to know their schedule, it is more flash mob in nature.

My former home "town", welcome! My family left California while I was in High School and while I did not become an agent for an insurance company I did work for an insurance company as IT support.
