This started when I inherited a late 50's early 60's Parker “51” pen. I knew nothing about it and it came, literally in a bowl full of old proken fountain pens. A couple years ago I was looking at it closer and was interested in learning more. I'll be posting links and information here about that as well.

That way it would not be disturbed by people who might not know what to do with a magic garden.

But they tend to do their best work at night, and prefer the company of sullen artist types rather than pixie chasers.
