Mordechai!

Fritz and I made this month's Abe's Peanut. This is the drawing side of the first one. We made four, one drawing and one story, for each week, for the month of July.

There is a nice photograph of one of Matt Singer's belts in the new Details magazine. I helped out on the inside graphic. That is a Bonobo!

today.

Help!

Have you seen this pen? This Itoya Finepoint .6 pen is my favorite pen. I like to use it for all different projects. The pen used to be available at Pearl Paint on Canal, Lee’s on 57th Street and Dick Blick stores all over. I started to have trouble finding the pen at these places (and on the internet) so I contacted the company Itoya about ordering them in bulk from them. Itoya told me that the pen (item #FS-60) had been discontinued and sent me in the direction of a US distributor of their products. I contacted them and have purchased their remaining stock (not too many) of the pen. This is where I am asking for your help! I have a feeling (I hope!) there is remaining stock around the country. I am just having trouble finding it. If you are in an art store and see this pen I would appreciate it very much if you would get the pen (or pens) for me. They were usually about $2. I will send you a drawing of a giraffe for each pen you send to me.

If you find a stock of them (they came in boxes of 12) and are more comfortable I pay for them—let me know where you found them, I can purchase them—and I will send you a drawing for finding them.

I appreciate everyone’s help!

These are so good.
