New Page!

Check out our new Web Page - "Writing Collectibles"

We are building a resource base on the History and Development of Writing, and what seemed appropriate was to offer some fascinating collectibles from the past. From Dip pens from those early school days ( ie for those of us over 55 years of age!) to writing materials, inkwells and other writing memorabilia, not to mention our huge range that is already available on our other pages...See our Interactive Papyrus page.

In the future we plan to do Interactive Workshops on "the History of Writing - 5000 years of writing!"

These will be in the Hunter Valley initially.

Stay tuned for more news! Contact us if you are interested in hearing more.
