Countdown to the 2008 Chicago Pen Show:
48 Hours More To Go

It’s 48 hours more to go before the official start of the 2008 Chicago Pen Show! From May 1 to 4, pen enthusiasts from around the world will converge in the Windy City for the greatest and largest vintage pen show on Earth. And Rhodia will be there! Of course we cannot miss it! Although the official schedule says 1st of May, you have until the weekend to prepare for the much-anticipated auction, which will take place in the evening of May 3. Sunday, May 4, it will be open to the general public, and that’s when we hope to see you guys! And there’s plenty to be excited about! Including the much talked-about Rhodia ePure notebooks. We’ve learned that it will be available for purchase from Pendemonium at the show. So keep an eye on it.
Another item from parent-company Clairefontaine’s line-up, which is generating buzz, is the eco-friendly Calligraphie notebook line called “Forever,” which is made of recycled paper.
Except at the show, these two items are not yet available for sale here in the US. So if only for that, you should save the date, and head to Westin-O’Hare, which is just next to the airport, off at I-90, this coming Sunday. See ya!
Wish I could be there, Looks like it’ll be great!
Hi rhodiadriver1,
I saw your comment in blog. Thanks!
I visit your blog regularly, but I don´t comment because my English is poor.
I collect fountain-pens, but I like very much the Rhodia´s notebook. Unfortunately here in Brazil we don´t have Rhodia products to sell. The few tradicional Rhodia´s notebook that I have, I bought in Pendemonium Site.
I´m look forward to your posts and photos about the Pen Show.
Have a nice Pen Show.
All the best.
PS: I hope that you understand my English.
It’s also the most respected in the community of pen collectors as well. visit us here again, and we’ll keep you updated with the pen show. we’ll also post some pics so you’ll have an idea before you come to the show next year.
I heard that this is the best Pen Show in the world and I would love stay there.
Maybe next year.
