  1. A C Ramachandran, popularly known among fountain pen enthusiasts as ACR or Kim ACR, passed away two days back (Dec 22). He was 84 years old and had been suffering from age-related illness for the last few months. ACR started his pen making life at a very early age of 16 and continued his pen journey until his 80s. ACR was one of the greatest pen makers of India. His handmade ebonite eyedropper fountain pens, using conventional lathe and hand tools, are known for its simple but elegant design, burp free writing, and build-like-tank features. In addition to making wonderful pens, ACR had special skills in repairing all sorts of pens. During the heydays of fountain pens in India he had repaired thousands of pens. ACR was a man with so many skills and talent. He was very knowledgeable in Ayurveda (the traditional Indian medicine), Jyothisham (the Indian Astrology), Tantra, Yantra & Mantra (the Indian Occult Science). He also had a great interest in Hypnotism and practiced it for long years in his earlier life. Over the last six decades ACR pens were sold all around the world, and sure he will live through his pens for ever in the minds of Indian pen lovers. RIP, the Great Master ACR!
