A shape that may not be familiar to many any more. My dad's fountain pen with the baffle in the cartridge to suck up the ink into reservoir. Now I know why so many men were afraid of the "blue stain" on their dress shirt pockets.
i used to use a fountain pen in high school, until i left the cap off and the ink bled on my notes, so ball pen it was since then. nicely set up, ellen. aces!
Great composition. One of my colleagues used a fountain pen and it was like therapy and an art form watching him refill the pen. He was a surgeon and will lay things out as if he was going to perform surgery.
