| My
staff surprised me today. I held an end
of the year staff meeting to thank them
for a great year. At the beginning of
2006 the tone of our staff meeting was
stern and I challenged them big time.
They all stepped up and we have a great
newspaper and Web site because of their
talent and hard work. At the end of
today's meeting one of our editors stood
up and started talking about me. It was
very humbling hearing everything he
said. Then he handed me a gift from the
staff and from others in different
departments. It was one of your pens,
the RFK Stadium pen to be exact.
Everyone knows I'm a lifelong Washington
Redskins fan and I have many fond
memories of the "good old
days" in D.C. when the Redskins
kicked butt in RFK Stadium. I was
speechless at their generosity and
thoughtful gift. I'll cherish it
forever. Thanks for making such quality
pens that represent such great memories
for us sports fans.
Hail
to the Redskins,

I
just wanted to say Thank You for your
wonderful products. I purchased
one of your Busch Stadium slimline pens
at Christmas for my Fiancé, who is now
on his way to Afghanistan
for a year. He absolutely loved
it, and it was by far his favorite gift.
Since he'll spend Christmas of 2006 in
the desert, I know he will think back on
the gifts he enjoyed in 2005, and your
Busch Stadium Ballpark Pen will be #1.
Now,
I'm mailing him one of your St. Louis
Hearts to remind him of the love waiting
for him back home.
Thank
you again!

Dear
Mary and Bill,
I love my Sportsman Park/Busch II pen
set, Number 16/20. The wood
used is very beautiful! Many
thanks for making these available!
I'm feeling very special!
All the best, and Merry Christmas,

My wife gave me one
of your pens for my 40th birthday.
It's built from lumber from Comiskey
Park. It's fantastic! I love it, it's
especially nice with the White Sox
having won the 2005 World Series.

I
cannot say enough good things about (the
Busch Limited Edition). The
craftsmanship is incredible. I
went to the site tonight to hopefully
get my father in law one and saw what I
expected...SOLD OUT

Park Pens,
I received the pens yesterday and they
are magnificent. What a great service
you are providing to the many people
that want an actual useful and
functional piece of the Busch stadium. I
am thrilled with the pen and I cannot
wait to see the look on the faces of my
brothers & friend that will be the
recipients of these forever keepsakes. I
hope to use mine for many years then
pass it on to my boys.
Let me also say that your customer
service is of award winning caliber.
Happy Holidays!

The
pen arrived on time and I gave it to my
husband for his birthday. He really liked it and since
Wrigley Field is his favorite, was very
touched.
Thanks for the follow-up,

The
pen arrived on Wednesday in excellent
condition. It is going to be a
birthday gift for my husband later this
week and it has been hard not to give it
to him already!!! It is beautiful,
and I am sure he will enjoy it for many
years to come.

Jeff,
I want to thank you again for making
such fabulous Fenway pens.
They are unspeakably special, and I’m
already having a difficult time
waiting until it’s time to send them
to my daughters and nephew and his wife.
They’ll be thrilled, as I am.

DEAR MARY ANN:
I have only known your company and your
associates for the past two weeks and I
can only say that it is the most
gratifying experience I have ever had
with any company. I am 68 years old and
this is saying something. I was in the
automobile business as an employee of
General Motors for over 45 years until I
became disabled in 1999 and was forced
to retire with no pension, only Social
Security and my wife. In all those years
I dealt with thousands of great people,
but I have never been as happy as I have
been in dealing with your great staff.
When I was forced to send back the
original pen to you because I could not
hold it due to the great patina finish
on it I was devastated. But between you,
Garry, Jeff and the doctor I believe you
folks have come up with a solution by
customizing the pen for me. I cannot
wait to see the finished product and to
be able to hold it properly so that I
can carry it forever.
GOD BLESS all four of you folks and your
families.
I have told a bunch of my friends about
you and your company and they also
cannot wait to see the finished product
that Jeff is making for me
Thank you again

I
just wanted to let you know that I
received my ornaments made of Busch
Stadium seats in the mail yesterday.
They are very cute! I plan to keep
one for myself, and give the other one
away as a gift. I also want to thank you
for providing such prompt and courteous
service. I hope to do business
with your company again in the near
future.
A
very satisfied customer

Thanks
for that treasure. Its up on our
refrigerator. I think that Grandpa Ben
is smiling. It brings back many great
memories. In 1942, when in my senior
year at Madison HS, my friends and I
would go to Ebbets Field on Fridays,
Ladies Day, and get in for 50 cents. We
were on a split session that year so
that we got out of school at a little
before 12, walked to the subway and in
15 minutes were at the Field. We'd grab
a hot dog, sometimes get autographs from
the players and then watch the game.
After I graduated in 42, and since I
went to
Penn
State
, I hardly saw a game but followed their
fortunes or misfortunes. I did see games
after graduation in '45 and did see
Jackie Robinson play a number of times.
We did not know what trials he went
through. That was not reported.
Interesting how changed the times are
now. Anyway I was at the parade when the
Dodgers won the World Series. Almost got
run over by a Policeman on a horse which
was used to control the mobs downtown
Brooklyn
. What a terrific day. Anyhow, you'll
find me smiling a lot because of you.
This was a beautiful thing you did!!
