PenHero.com was founded September 26, 2001 as a simple on-line archive of fountain pen links. The site quickly grew to become a creative outlet for articles on pen history, pen reviews, and a repository of pen information. PenHero.com not only contains hundreds of pen related weblinks, but is a photo-illustrated on-line resource of information about vintage and modern writing instruments. There are numerous articles, penographies, advertisement galleries, web polls, desktop wallpapers, and vintage user guides that are frequently updated each month. In addition, there are pens and supplies for sale at the PenHero.com Store. PenHero.com is about enjoying the word's best hands-on hobby, the hobby that connects your thoughts to paper with the pen in your hand!
