after studying Parker history so closely for many years I could walk into Court Street offices and know where everything is, the shops and the offices of Geo S. Parker, Kenneth Parker and go through the pen archive drawers, enjoy the smell of hard rubber, feel the "thump thump thump" vibrating in the floor of the heavy metal stamping machines which Kenneth Parker once said...."that's the sound of money." Fun to day dream and time travel. I'd like to see if fountain pens or any kind of writing instruments survive going forward a few hundred years from now.
