Some
People
I Prefer the long way
around and experiment
with various Fountain
Pens before reaching the
Ideal Waterman,
but it is advisable to pay
the price at first and you
have the last thing in
the way of Fountain
Pens. It is nearer human
than anything in
this line, but if it does
not satisfy you, you may
as well stop spending
j]H your money.
