Rebecca, your floaty pen dilemma was forwarded to me. There is a website for
floaty pen collectors www.turn2001.com, the last time I looked, the
webmaster was selling a holder for the pens.
By the way, The Lincoln Museum has a floaty pen available on our webstore at
www.thelincolnmuseum.org  if you don't have one in your collection, you
should!
I hope this helps,

I collect these, too!  I'm so glad I'm not the only one.  I keep mine in a
dish on my desk at home, but have often thought about another way to show
them off.

My other troublesome personal collection are my floaty pens.  Currently, I
keep them in various interesting glasses.  My father once suggested that I
drill holes in pieces of wood and stand them up that way.   Any other ideas?
