About Us

Pen World® International is the definitive source for information about new and vintage writing instruments and the people who create, use and enjoy them. Pen World is published and distributed seven times a year by World Publications, Inc. located in Kingwood, Texas, a suburb of Houston.

World Publications president Glen B. Bowen combined his vast knowledge and love of pens with his publishing experience to found Pen World® International in the fall of 1987. Bowen is also author of Collectible Fountain Pens. First published in 1980, the guide is still a must-read for novice collectors.

About 1001 Pens
In 1995, Davis Vintage Collectibles, a small store in the heart of New
York's antique district on 27th Street, was opened to sell antique and vintage writing instruments.

In 1997, the store added vintage postcards, pen advertising and accessories such as gold nibs, ink wells, antique desk sets and handmade pen displays.

We set up our first web site in 1999 called nypen.com and now we are selling exclusively online through our site http://www.1001Pens.com, & http://www.conwaystewartpens.co.uk

Today 10 year later I live in Paris and still working with 80% of the same buyer that I had in 1995 when I had my shop.

From Atelier Gargoyle's website:

We are a small establishment that is dedicated to the Lost Art of Handwriting. We love the history, the art, and the practice of handwriting. If you also find pleasure in handwriting, if you like to write letters and postcards and notes to yourself, if you take pleasure in embellishing your correspondence with sealing wax, and if you want well-made, beautiful tools and accoutrements to accomplish all this, you’ve found the right website. We reproduce antique seals, and we design new ones. We make our own flexible sealing wax in our small San Francisco studio, and we sell traditional wax made in France. We’ve very carefully selected the fountain pens we sell. We prefer pens that sit very comfortably in the hand and write easily. Most importantly, we specialize in italic nibs — the nib shape of choice for calligraphers in the western world over the past two millennia. We also offer gifts, writing and desk paraphernalia, knives, and other atavistic tools, treasures, and talismans. Please explore our Atelier.

Pendemonium is a full time writing equipment shop owned by Sam and Frank Fiorella in Fort Madison, Iowa. Pendemonium was established in 1994 in Montclair, Virginia and moved to Fort Madison, Iowa in May 2000. We are one of just a handful of full time writing equipment dealers in the world.

We take pride in offering the very best personalized service we possibly can. Much of our business is transacted over the internet which some regard as rather impersonal, but we are determined to offer each of our customers service tailored to their needs.
