This year's Washington DC penshow lived up to it's billing as "Supershow". As always, attendance was high, this show is considered to be one of the most important gatherings for pen collectors worldwide. This year attendees arrived from all corners of the globe. As you can see from the pictures, it looks like "a great time was had by all"... It may sound like a cliche, but sometimes a cliche is just the best way to describe something!
