Just became a member today so thought I would introduce myself in this way (plus the small post I made in the new members forum)............
At last count I had ~110 pens and 90% made prior to 1960's

Re: It's Kinda Like Candy
That's a tasty collection. Which one's your favourite?
Re: It's Kinda Like Candy
Always a hard question but:
1) My ultimate favorite is in the tray at the bottom of the picture in the gold colored Parker box. It's a Parker 51 FP and Mech pencil set in burgundy from around 1959. Never inked, never used. It was given to my grandpa by the town of Auxier, Ky., where we are from, for community service / appreciation. He helped dig graves, all of them. Understand, this town was a coal mining town in Eastern Kentucky so not real big. He passed away in 1970 and after my grandma passed in 2003 my Mom found this and gave it to me.
2) Any of the Esterbrooks.
