Challenge ~ Writing Implement

This Ladies' Parker fountain pen is at least 50 years old -
it belonged to my Mother and she gave it to me in 1961 when I passed my 11+!

For passing your 11+?
She obviously wanted you to write more and more in your studies!

I love that fountain pen! I love everything about it. We had to use one when I was in school. No ballpoints allowed! I love the image!

I love it,Chris. This was my father's Parker, which my mother gave me after he died. I've used it in a previous Thursday challengehttp://www.pbase.com/image/115280556
