P75 Sterling Silver Cisele

[mitto]

Thanks for submitting these pics. (I don't know what you're apologizing for; they're sharp, with soft lighting that makes for clear detail) I wasn't aware of Sheaffer's answer to the ciselé. The diamond pattern is a nice idea. I agree about the clip; it doesn't blend well where it's attached at the top, either. Is it spring loaded? Sheaffer put out a lot of stumpy clips - does anyone know the motivation behind this? Isn't there a Tuckaway with barely any clip at all?

What about these Sheaffer Targas and their clips? See specially the second pen.

Poncirus (AKA Hardy Orange) is a common rootstock for edible citrus. Mine is a result of the death of a Myer's Lemon to which it was grafted. It had some minor dieback this winter, which was a little colder than average but is rebounding nicely. The fruit, as you say, is inedible but fragrant and reputed to make a good marmalade. The plant makes an impenetrable security hedge with its fierce, inch-long thorns. I once saw someone on a ladder, pruning a full-grown hardy orange tree, streams of blood running down the sides of his head.

 

Just to stay on topic. Parker 75 ciselé, rah, rah, rah! Khan, did you get your new one yet?

Naaa. Just been informed the parcel has arrived in Islamabad and would be delivered tommorrow morning. Cant wait , James.
