In this issue: America the Beautiful, both the song and the new limited edition pen collection from David Oscarson, is far more than just amber waves of grain and purple mountain majesties. Yafa Brands is both a manufacturer and a distributor, but there's always a link that ties those parts together. Another U.S. distributor, Itoya Studios, adds a new Japanese paper brand, APICA, to its stellar group. Tono&Lims is an ink-making duo that is shaking up the status quo for ink aficionados. Richard Binder wraps up his series, "The Surrender Pens of World War II," and announces the release of the book version. Also: Broadwell's dozen, the Andersons' new Cardinal direction, the Chatterley Luxuries experience, and the PW calendar pre-order opportunity. Plus: Pens of the season! Our magnificent, 33rd Annual Fall Preview.
