dope pens

Here in Holland you can buy hashish at certain coffeeshops. They come in bags like above. Well this is my dope. And my dealer is a Calligraphy-site. In the majority of the artstuff shops the only pens you can get are Plume Atome and some Hiro pens(do not like Hiro pens). Twice I've been, in the previous century, on two visits to London, to "His Nibs". Thousands of different pens. Philip Poole was the owner. Unfortunately he deceased in 1999 and his shop is no more.
Ofcourse it was impossible to search what you wanted, but it was a delight to discuss what you desired of your pen and he made a selection of one of the assorted boxes he had ready with loads of pens to try. I have about 150 different ones.
The above pens are both Hunt. No 102 and 108.
