counter pen
A counter pen (also known as a security pen) is a pen designed to be affixed to the counter or table of an institution, such as, typically, a bank or post office by some means, typically a chain, ball chain or plastic cord, complicating the accidental or purposeful removal of the pen from the counter. Pens in banks and other financial organisations may also be affixed to avoid potential harm to staff.
A 1938 issue of ''The Bankers Monthly'' describes the concept: ''The pen also gives a better write than the ordinary counter pen. The ink stand cannot be stolen, for it is fastened to the counter or desk. Besides, a chain between pen and stand prevents anyone from wandering away with the pen.''
Artist Daniel C. Boyer has used counter pens to make drawings that have appeared in several exhibitions; the unwieldy, attached cord influences the drawing by hampering it.
