Leadhead's Tread: Philadelphia Pen Show

"You should go to Philly."

This was the year I decided I’d heard this just too many times, from just too many people, who all have said this in the same tone you’d use to lecture someone on the virtues of going to visit your mother. I finally made the pilgrimage this past weekend, and of course I found that all those people who lectured me that I should be there were right. . .

To learn more, the full article is included in The Leadhead's Pencil Blog Volume 2, available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and everywhere else you buy books, or you can order a copy signed by yours truly through the Legendary Lead Company HERE.

    Thanks for the great time Jon. I think I have sworn off scotch forever. Deb was not happy, and I never did make it back to the show to say Hello or goodbye to everyone. I had a great time, nice to meet you. See you in Baltimore!

    You're right - Philly is a must-not-miss event. And you missed the mini Eversharp 5th Avenue pencil in gray (thank goodness!)
    Next up - Baltimore??
