Hi Everyone,

 

Parker produced a paper called the Parkergram and Shoptalker from the 30's to the 80's for employees aand Dealers. The cartoons below are just a few in these papers showing Parker did have a sense of Humor. :roflmho: :roflmho:

 

Enjoy, Francis

Should be good to keep this at the forefront of our forum.

The first one (angels) reminds me of a VERY similar drawing with the caption "Well, I guess now its just taxes."

I took the liberty of putting Francis' posting for the World's Fair up here - or I'm trying do do so: (it worked)

 

From Parkercrazy:

 

HI Everyone,

 

Thought you might be interested in Parker's contribution to the New York World's Fair 1964 - 65. I was stationed over seas at this time and never attended, but sure wish I could have. Lots of information in these old Parkergrams and Shoptalkers, I found this interesting and hope you also enjoy. :puddle: :puddle:

 

Take Care, Francis

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

Okay okay, I'm probably being thick, but why do they keep talking about fountain pens writing underwater? They can't....right? Ugh confusing jokes, they drive me to distraction.

Looking for a Hero 850. Because they're cool. Let me know if you have one you want to sell.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
