IAP Collection Contest​

Want to immortalize your efforts in a permanent collection of pens belonging to the IAP membership? Don't like many rules?
Welcome to the 2024 BASH - "IAP Collection' Contest".
Not sure what the IAP Collection is? Check out the links in my profile at the bottom.

OK, In addition to the Universal Contest Rules, the following also apply:
  1. Enter only if you are willing to donate your pen (hence the prizes) if you are in the top three in votes.
  2. Due to storage and transportation and display restrictions The pen must be easily fit into a typical storage slot (e.g, 1" x 7" approximately). - No elaborate Freestyle.
  3. If it is a constructed blank (e.g., cast/embedded, hybrid, segmented, 3d printed) you need to have made it yourself.
  4. Any material, or combination of materials is acceptable.
  5. Any style is acceptable. (Fountain, ball point, rollerball).
  6. Any kit/kitless is acceptable.
  7. The pen must not have been entered in another 2024 BASH Contest, or been previously publicly displayed.
  8. No montages, watermarks, or any other identifying marks that might reveal the identity of the maker.
  9. One entry per person.
  10. There are still prizes!
  11. The top three pens voted by the IAP Membership will be added to the IAP Collection.
  12. You must have fun!
A new guideline for inclusion in the IAP Collection was announced on 12/20/2021: IAP Collection Inclusion Limit. This limits an individual to having no more than three pens in the Collection. After an individual has three pens in the Collection, they will be notified to submit their pens to other appropriate contests in the future.
