Colin Drewer opened Pencraft in 1968 in the Regent Arcade, repairing writing instruments by hand. It moved into shop 29 of the Adelaide Arcade in 1988 and has stayed a single-subject shop ever since — Montblanc, Pelikan, Pilot, Kaweco, bottled ink, replacement nibs, Florentine leather. The house ink collection was developed with Robert Oster in nine colours. Ownership has changed hands three times in 58 years without the shop changing its mind.
