Pen Explosion at The Pen Guys House – Nobody Hurt

Pen Explosion at The Pens Guys House - Nobody Hurt

I woke up this morning to find my pen storage bin with its door blown off its hinges and pens spilling all over the place. This bin was given to me with a broken hinge and it simply could not take the pressure of about 30K pens pushing up against it.

I had a sinking suspicion that levy was about to burst but ignored the voice telling me to wrap it up with some rope rope.
This afternoon I took care of it with a little duct and rope and I am ready again to receive your packages of empty pens in the mail.

Is there such a thing as too many used pens…NO. Keep them coming and thank you all for your support.

500 Reasons to Buy Promotional Pens from Bic Promo Pens

Box of Pen Guy promotional pens donated by Bic Promo Pens

 

Its has been way too long since my last post so I wanted to break my blog fast by giving a big thanks to Tej over at Bic Promo Pens the #1 source for promotional, advertising, and logo pens. Tej sponsored me this month by printing and sending over 500 of my very own Bic promotional pens printed with “Help save a million used pens”. There were so many colors to choose from so I went with the blue/orange pens with the gold type that I though would go well with the pen guy colors.

Bic Promo Pens is great source for promotional, advertising, and logo pens which guarantee the lowest prices online. I think getting personalized pens are a smart marketing solution and a great way to advertise and promote your business. I will definitely get the word out this summer about Collecting One Million Pens as I head out in the Mercedes Pens Art Car covered in 10,000 pens handing my new BIC PENS

Thanks Tej:)

Pens From New Mexico Smell Funny – Smell-a-Vision

The Pen Guy Smells Pens Donated From New Mexico

I got this massive box of Pens sent in by Don from New Mexico the other day and frankly they smell kinda funny. Don’t get me wrong I love all and any pen sent regardless of the way they look, smell or taste. Any ways I did a video about this particular batch of used pens and want to continue doing so as more come from the local thrift store locations and beyond. Don, thanks for sending those in and I look forward to the other ones you have coming my way.

One Legged Wooden Model with Giant Calligraphy Pen

One Legged Wooden Model with Giant Calligraphy PenI got this calligraphy pen donated from BJ Broadstone, one of my facebook friends the other day with a story written on the tag, here is what it said:

A little story: This calligraphy pen helped me earn a small income by addressing wedding invitations and creating poster size calendars. Thanks to the high tech printers, and PCs, my pen has been retired:( But hello mural!!

The story on the wooden model is that when I go to the thrift store to collect pens I always take a peak in the garbage can just in case. This one time I saw the one legged wooden model and I had to have it, so I dove and took it home. If I ever wanted to learn how to draw a one legged person, I have the right wooden model for it.

Thanks BJ.

Jack Nicklaus – British Open Farewell Pen


In 2005 Jack Nicklaus played his last major tournament at the British Open. My friend Jon was there watching this amazing golfer play St. Andrews Links in Scottland, and all he could think of was getting me a pen from there that I could glue on my Mercedes Pens Art Car. I was glad for the pen and the fact that for a very brief moment I was on the same par with Jack in his thoughts. This pen is located on the first row on passenger side door right in the middle. Thank you Jon for the pen and thank you Jack for your talents.
