Ok...Here is my New (old) Every Day Carry Pen! Since my Stipula Passaporto FPN LE went in for repairs this week, I turned to this 1937 Green Parker Vacumatic with a Lock Down Filler as my fill in! Want to know a little bit more about it? How about two pictures?

This picture will tell you a bit about this pen;

 

This other Picture will show some more about this pen;

In case you can't read the 1st picture all the way; I over-hauled this Beauty and replaced the diapham.....Polished the exterior, including all the exterior metal! Then I polished the Nib and adjusted the nib and feed. And let me tell ya; This Baby writes like a Dream! The ink from the picture you ask? Why of Course it is Organic's Studio - L.E. Foggy Bottom that I asked someone to pick up for me at the DC Pen show.....

 

I don't know what else to write about this pen other than to say, that my Passaporto is going to have a tough time taking back the Every Day Carry position due to how Beautiful this "37" writes! The only thing that the Passaporto has over the "37" is that the Passaporto is so dang easy to carry in my right front pocket which I sorely miss right now.....

Hey Friends -

 

Just received this lovely Estie via the loan program. Read further to see whose pen this is.

      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

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @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
