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

Wonder if we can pin these?

 

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

very cool thanks for sharing :thumbup: :clap1:

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.

Emoo the Sad Cow

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

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o
    • adamselene
      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
