Our selection
Featured Pen
Parker No. 5 Spiral Mottled Hard Rubber Overfeed. C. 1894 Cap imprint nearly all worn away, with faint remnants of the 1894 patent left on the cap. Pen has been used, but there are no cracks. Correct and intact Parker overfeed and unmarked nib. Intact Lucky Curve Feed. We have never seen an earlier mottled 5 before. An amazing discovery.
Curation
We only offer the finest vintage pens, chosen in consultation with noted experts in the field.
The pen exceeded all my expectations, and its condition is well beyond your modest description.
D. Paul
I received my repaired fountain pens back today, and they function flawlessly and gleam as if they just came out of the dealer’s display case. Many thanks.
J.C.
Is this really the pen I sent in? It appears to be a brand-new (old) replacement. Fantastic!

Experience spanning two centuries
GoPens.com was established in 1995 by Gary and Myrna Lehrer, and it supplied discriminating collectors with extraordinary pens for more than a quarter-century.
The end of an era
On January 4th, 2022, Gary died, and GoPens.com was stilled, though Myrna continued to supply eager collectors with items from Gary’s substantial holdings for several years.
A new chapter
After a hiatus following the death of Gary Lehrer in 2022, the torch has been passed to a team led by George Rimakis and Ernesto Soler, deeply experienced pen collectors with an international reputation.
Our values
We love vintage pens and their history, so we are committed to supplying out clients with both fine collectible pens along with an education about these marvelous items. Our grading is conservative and our prices fair; our customers are valued participants in our mission to spread our fascination with old pens.
