The "Other" Pencraft
At page 119 of The Catalogue I've listed the Pencraft . . .
NOTE: This article is now included in the print version of The Leadhead's Pencil Blog, available anywhere you buy books, or also from The Legendary Lead Company.
Jon, I immensely enjoy your postings. I cannot offer anything directly to your discussion. BUT, here are some quasi irrelevant facts. 1) Pencraft was a name for a Carter's ink. 2) Pencraft Inc Boston was listed to be at 5 Bromfield, Boston (http://books.google.com/books?id=u1A5AAAAIAAJ&q=Pencraft+fountain+pen+boston&dq=Pencraft+fountain+pen+boston&hl=en&ei=fqPjTrHSBYfs0gHf1PHDBQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=8&ved=0CHIQ6AEwBw) which is the exact same address of the Bromfield Pen Shop is today. http://bromfieldpenshop.com

Coincidental? Maybe.
