If you are a space enthusiast like me, you want to have space related items around you at all times. While your boss may not approve of you having a large scale model of the Gemini-Titan on your desk, you can now have a beautiful mini replica in your office that can actually help out with all of that paperwork! This is a Gemini-Titan Inspired working ink pen that will look great on your desk. I designed the pen from scratch, producing the artwork for the pen in a graphics program. I did my best to capture all of the beautiful detail that existed on the real rocket and spacecraft. These are $6 apiece and include shipping to the Continental US. If you purchase more than five, I can offer a quantity discount. Please message me if you would like to have one!

I just received my order and I must say that you get a very good looking, accurate pen for a very good price. I bought a couple of them as gifts to my spaceflight friends. A nice compliment to all high-end products. |

Ditto on the praise for these pens. Very nicely done, and at a price that anyone can afford. Multiples, even! |

I received five of these in the mail today, and they're fantastic! I appreciate that they're detailed, yet very affordable. I'm going to keep a couple and give the rest away to other space enthusiasts. Thank you very much for producing these, and I look forward to your future "rocket pens!" |

Thanks Jason! Glad you liked the pens you received!For those of you who have purchased the Gemini-Titan pen, either from me directly or on eBay, thank you! The response has been very favorable, so I have added a pen to the fleet. I now have a Mercury Atlas available for purchase. They are the same price as the Gemini-Titan, $6 apiece with a slightly better price if you purchase at least five. Also, I have the Mercury Redstone and X-15 in the development phase, so I'd be curious to know your thoughts on those concepts. Thanks!!!

The Mercury-Atlas pens are just as nice as the Gemini-Titan pens. Can't wait for the Redstone pens to become available! |

For all of you who have purchased my Early Space Race Pens (Mercury Redstone, Mercury Atlas, Gemini-Titan, X-15) either directly through me or on eBay, thank you! The response has been very favorable, so I have added a few more pens to the fleet. I now have a Saturn IB, Saturn V, and a Falcon 9, the latter representing the recently successful DM-2 mission! See the pics below to see how each pen looks. Like the earlier versions, a lot of time was put into the artwork to accurately represent each launch vehicle. The Falcon 9 even has a DM-2 patch included to celebrate the successful mission. I have this Falcon 9 in white and black trim, so be sure and specify which you would like. You can purchase them all through my eBay account (keymichael1855), or you can purchase them directly through me for a better price. The new pens are $7 each and include free shipping to the Continental US. For every four pens that you purchase, I'll throw in the 5th for free!
