Odd thing about this image use of a fountain pen. These Esterbrooks were used same as a steel dip penner. Notice...stored nib up on desk, no ink in feed, dip to fill the feed, touch nib to edge of ink bottle to avoid a huge "blot" of ink then carefully begin writing. This was early 1960's. You're seeing an image same as from the 1800's but I don't see an old fashioned rocker ink blotter.
