I can remember getting a calligraphy set from my parents when I was young and spending time writing letters to anyone I could think of! I think I was about 13 or 14 when I got it. I recently found it again, all in the original box with some full cartridges, I popped one in and it worked...after all these years...no cleaning, no tinkering it simply worked...Can you believe that!?!

Wow. I seem to buy new ones and they don't work for five minutes. Can I ask the brand?

No wonder your handwriting is so beautiful, Anita! What a lovely surprise to find it again. Sheaffer rock - they are so reliable and so are Waterman :)
