Inspired by the famous abolitionist and orator’s iconic image, the Frederick Douglass rollerball has a tactile computer engraved texture that is complemented with antique copper trim. Douglass has his portrait on both the finial and packaging label. "His life’s work still serves as an inspiration to those who seek equality and a more just society." - History.com

George Kartsotis started Retro 1951 in 1990 in Richardson, Texas. He received his first nice pen as a gift for a job promotion and recognized the potential of the special gift. "We're a gift company." He says. "We are selling the accoutrements of life. A pen is not a pen, it's a vehicle to an end – a way of showing who you are." Although Retro specializes in fine writing instruments, they also offer leather accessories, games, lifestyle products and "other cool stuff!" 

Retro 1951 custom designs and produces new products and packaging that provide both continuity and freshness year after year. From top selling pens to card cases and desk accessories, they consistently develop a wide range of products that have fueled their retail business. Retro 1951 has enjoyed working with companies like Tommy Bahama, Tumi, Boeing, and many others, designing and manufacturing products that enhance their brand identity. For instance, when developing a product for Harley-Davidson®, Retro 1951 captures the exciting feeling of roaring down a winding road with wind rushing through your hair so you can experience it, even when chained to your desk.

Retro 1951's innovative products use the latest in design and technology to bring many years of pleasure to the end user. After all, "Life is too short to carry an ugly pen!™"

Reliable and Convenient Fast Charger!
Color: Black
I recently purchased the 100W USB-C Charger from Anker, specifically the PIQ 3.0 Compact and Foldable model, and I must say that it has exceeded my expectations in several aspects. Here's why I believe it deserves four stars: First and foremost, the charging speed is impressive. With 100W of power, this charger is capable of rapidly charging a variety of devices. Whether it's a smartphone, tablet, or even a laptop, the Anker USB-C Charger gets the job done quickly and efficiently. The PIQ 3.0 technology ensures optimized charging for compatible devices, saving me precious time and keeping my devices ready to go. The compact and foldable design is a standout feature of this charger. It takes up minimal space, making it perfect for travel or everyday use. The foldable prongs allow for easy storage and protect them from damage when not in use. Its lightweight and portable nature make it convenient to carry in a bag or pocket, ensuring I have reliable charging wherever I go. The build quality of the charger is top-notch. The materials used feel durable and sturdy, giving me confidence in its longevity. Anker is known for its high-quality products, and this charger lives up to that reputation. I appreciate the attention to detail in its design and construction. Another positive aspect of this charger is its compatibility with a wide range of devices.

This gives me peace of mind knowing that my devices are being charged safely without the risk of any damage. While the Anker 100W USB-C Charger has exceeded my expectations in many ways, I feel there is room for improvement. The inclusion of a USB-C to USB-C cable would have been a nice addition, as it would provide a complete package for charging devices. Additionally, a travel pouch or case to keep the charger and cable organized during travel would be highly appreciated. In conclusion, the Anker 100W USB-C Charger, PIQ 3.0 Compact and Foldable model, is a reliable and convenient fast charger that delivers on its promises.

Great charger, works as intended.
Color: Black
Works great, I’m able to use my Legion Go S docked to my TV with this charger whereas a 65W charger it would slowly discharge. Highly recommend for PC handheld users.

An excellent companion for my Galaxy Tab S9,
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
I'm experimenting with replacing my Windows PC with a higher end tablet. so I wanted a docking station (let's call it the DS) to connect it to a mouse, keyboard, and most i importantly, my 28 inch display screen. So Far, So Good! This review is going through the docking station, the S9, and DEX, then displayed on a nice big screen! I REALLY like using a REAL keyboard! Once it was delivered, I rushed to my workstation to see how it worked. And it didn't! Nothing, NOTHING would work. It kept telling me to check the cables. So out of frustration, I had lunch. It turned out that the case I bought for the S9 fooled me into thinking I had the DS plugged into the tablet, but it was not. Once I had figured THAT out, the docking station, and the tablet worked well together. I like that I'm using two different RF Dongles for the keyboard and mouse plugged into the DS. I don't have to use battery power to use Bluetooth for those accessories. Plus, I still have one USB 3.0 port free. The Keyboard and Mouse don't appear to lag, at all. If it does, it is so minor that I am unable to percieve it. I like that I can power the Tablet from the DS. I'm using a 20 watt Amazon charger, and it seems to work just fine. The tablet doesn't give me any messages that I'm on a slow charge and it seems to charge as it does without the DS. The only real negative is that the cable from the DS to the Tab S9 is a bit too short for the tablet to be propped upright. The tablet display remains on, and the S Pen can be used with it. I'm thinking that I might want to use the tablet itself as a sort of touchpad sometimes. I might find applications where I would want the tablet display to remain upright. I don't know, but it MIGHT be a problem, maybe. Build quality seems good. I think the DS case is metal, at least it looks and feels like aluminum. And the cord going to the Tablet seems quite robust. I can't comment yet on reliabiy, It will take some time for that info to appear. But functionally, it is everything the seller claims it is. I am satisfied. Edit: I bought one for my wife.

Awesome tool to have
Color: Grey
The UtechSmart USB C Ethernet Multiport Adapter is a great small and versatile tool. I use it to connect my Android phone or tablet to an HDMI display that is not a smart device. I primarily use it in my kids' room to watch Netflix or YouTube videos on the larger screen, or in our travel van where I have a display for the kids to watch TV while on long travels. I love this tool because it eliminates the need for DVDs, which can get scratched and the kids get tired of watching the same movies. With this tool, I can connect their device to the display, and they can watch everything together on the display and listen through my van speakers. The tool also has other great benefits that I use with my Mac, such as the ability to connect USB devices for external storage, connect to an HDMI display, or connect to Ethernet cables. This is a great tool to have in your computer bag, especially if you use a Mac or any other computer with a USB C port. Pros: Small and lightweight Versatile Easy to use Affordable Works with a variety of devices Cons: The HDMI port only supports 4K output at 30fps The Ethernet port does not support Gigabit speeds Overall: I highly recommend the UtechSmart USB C Ethernet Multiport Adapter. It is a great tool for anyone who needs to connect their devices to a variety of displays or peripherals. Overall, I am very happy with the UtechSmart USB C Ethernet Multiport Adapter. It is a great product that I would recommend to anyone.

Solid USB C Ethernet Hub!
Color: Grey
I was looking for an USB C Ethernet adapter for my new Samsung Galaxy book 2 Pro 360, and the first couple I ordered had the problem of constantly disconnecting and reconnecting. After some digging into the issue, it seems this has been a common problem the plagues USB C adapters, and may be due to the connection being loose, or the hub overheating, and the hub not being able to supply all the power necessary to maintain connection. So I needed a hub that had PD so that power draw would always be sufficient to maintain connection. This hub has worked as advertised, It hasn't disconnected once, and I have plugged 3 external hard drives, in addition to the Ethernet port, and getting very fast speeds, well over 400 Mbps on my 400 Mbps plan, and upload speeds are as advertised as well. So far I am very happy with the purchase, I will update this review once I have used the HDMI port. Update: 7.15.22 My laptop no longer recognizes the USB Hub. I contacted customer service to request a warranty replacement, and they shipped one out within a couple days. After sthinking about why the first hub failed, I believe it could be a heat issue. I have 3 external USB SSDs connected to the hub along with the Ethernet port, and the USB C power delivery port to provide the necessary power. I notice it gets quite warm, so I have been monitoring the heat, and placing it on a cooling pad, which keeps it from getting too hot. I wish I didn't have to use the cooling pad, but I'm pretty sure that was what led to the other hub failing.
