How Pens And Our Modern Alphabet Evolved
chromantic posted a topic in Fountain & Dip Pens - First Stop
Stumbled across this short film made by Sheaffer in 1947, entitled "The Twenty-six Old Characters", covering the history of writing instruments, the evolution of our modern alphabet and how fountain pens work. While all the modern pens shown being used are, of course, Sheaffers, the brand promotion is pretty low key. I found it pretty interesting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xUDehNvbrE- 5 replies

Moments When Having A Fountain Pen On You Was Awesome
Ragwort Fairy posted a topic in Fountain & Dip Pens - First Stop
I've been acting in a short film for just over a week now, and today my character was taking down notes. The director asked me if I had a pen, and I told her I had fountain pens with me, and I got to use one on camera~! It was such a happy little squee moment and I'm super glad I had the pens in my bag. This being the fountain pen network, I'm sure there are other people with stories like mine. Was there ever a moment when having a fountain pen with you was more exciting and fun than just "I have a pen in my pocket"? (Much as it's a great feeling, I think we've all experienced that!) Do you always make sure you have a fountain pen on you in anticipation of such an event?- 15 replies
