A holder for marker pens that keep the latter readily available for use while providing a relatively sealed compartment that prevents or minimize the circulation of air around the tip of the pen. The housing has slanted walls that provide structural stability to the holder when it holds one or more pens. An opening in the housing includes upper and lower cavities with a slanted portion inbetween acting as a seal for the end of the tubular housing of a pen. As step in the lower cavity further reduces its diameter ensuring the further isolation of the pen's tip thus protecting from the frying action of circulating air. Portable embodiments for use with a user's belt permit ready access to pens for an ambulatory user. One of these embodiments includes a removable pen holder member.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A marker pen holder, comprising a marker pen, a housing body having a flat bottom and cylindrical opening including upper and lower cavities, said upper cavity having a diameter larger than the diameter of said lower cavity, and further including a slanted portion of said opening to make the transition from said upper cavity to said lower cavity with a smaller diameter than the diameter of said upper cavity and said slanted portion having cooperative dimensions to serve as a resting area for the tubular end of said marker pen that includes a tip that protrudes inside said lower cavity, so that said slanted portion and pen combination prevent the circulation of air to said lower cavity housing said tip, and further including a substantially flat member with two surfaces and said housing body being mounted to one of said surfaces, and further including a belt loop on said other surface for cooperatively receiving a belt.
