About tbickiii's Vintage Fountain Pens:

Based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, I have been collecting and restoring fountain pens since 1999.  In order to enable my collecting "habit", I sell restored vintage fountain pens and the occasional modern pen here on ebay.  I do all of the restoration work myself and stand behind my work.  I enjoy restoring these vintage pens and sending them on to someone to use and enjoy.

I list all my pens on SUNDAY NIGHT, so please check in and see what I have to offer.  I typically list Parker, Sheaffer, Wahl Eversharp, Waterman and Pelikan, with the occasional Esterbrook, Diamond Medal, Eclipse, etc.  Also, you can follow me as a seller to get weekly e-mail notifications of the pens I have listed.
