John’s Oddities: Fujiko Mine Pen

I’ll be the first person to admit that my collection of anime merchandise & memorabilia is neither the largest nor the most valuable. I collect what I like (when I can afford to) and have a particular fondness for unusual and novel items. These items aren’t necessarily rare or valuable; they’re just odd and unexpected, from a non-Japanese perspective. I’ll share some of them, one per day, in case anyone else finds these collectors’ items fascinating.

Ball point pens are very common, but a ball point pen in the shape of Fujiko Mine is quite unusual. Notice that the point of the pen sticks out of her feet.
