Checklist

Recommended Posts

Inspired by the resurrection of an older thread, I'm wondering if there's anyone else who loves mid-century aerospace memorabilia and fountain pens.  Surely, it's not just me; show us your best aerospace-related pen!

Perhaps the top pens in this category are the 75 fountains and ball pens made with recovered space junk from a Gemini launch.
