If you’ve ever wanted a comprehensive history of fountain pen filling systems...this is not that. However, Sharyn and Di are joined by Tom May to discuss overall trends in ink-filling systems from the early 20th century to today, the potential for innovation or refinement in those mechanisms going into the future, and what our personal favourites are. 

 

This episode features Sharyn (@sharynzha), Tom (@harry_longbaugh) and Diana (@thegrynne).
