This visually vibrant, attention-grabbing poster is a clever marketing tool for advertising all of the brands of Industrial Marking Products made by Sakura of America, that just happen to come in the color pink. The word Sakura means cherry blossom in Japanese, and Sakura are also the recognized inventor of the wildly popular gel ink roller ball pen, also known as the Gelly Roll! In the 1990s, the pop singer Pink was even a spokesperson for the brand!

Spotted at the National Stationery Show at The Javits Center

Here’s a fun item that I spotted at the recent National Stationery Show / New York Now Gift Show: Officially Licensed Kiss Rollerball Pens! Kiss‘ bassist and mouthpiece Gene Simmons may be an arrogant blowhard, but he also really knows audience. The Kiss Army of fans are nothing if not a fiercely loyal legion who will purchase virtually anything that has the Kiss name it. And now at last the time of the Official Kiss Pen has come!

Rock Poster

This design is called the Rock Poster!

1978 Model

This one is called 1978!

Kiss Pen Holder

Each pen comes with its own colorful case, to keep it safe and in pristine condition between uses! Please take note that the Spaceman character is fully represented by both guitarists Ace Frehley and Tommy Thayer!

And since these pens and accessories are all officially licensed, you can enjoy them with no fear of litigation! Find a retailer in your area at This Link!
