Our Marketing Director, Nancy J. Kramer, has launched a new feature, detailing bargains and curiosities in neighborhood establishments. We will continue this feature (albeit in smaller format) as long as the LES continues to surprise us with bargains and innovative products and services.

Jac’s Scroll Pen


new concept in writing instruments, from Seward Park’s product designer Jac Zagoory: Pen and paper rolled into one! More than two feet of note paper are stored in the Scroll Pen’s cap. Twist it out and write on it using the barrel of the pen which detaches from the cap. Hand someone a note or simply scroll the paper back into the cap to keep a journal. The Scroll Pen is handsomely boxed with two additional paper cartridges. Refills are available.

Order on-line: JZpen.com. When placing your order write in "I Love GSN" in the comment box when checking out and receive 10% off the amazing scroll pen.
