Pen history and use

The traditional quill fountain pen was replaced by the now well know fountain pen in 1884 when Waterman devised a way to avoid the constant need to dip the quill pen into an ink bottle. The fountain pen remained supreme until the ballpoint pen took off in popularity around 1947.
The inventor of the ballpoint pen was Mr. John J. Load, a citizen of the United States, residing at Weymonth, in the county of Norfolk and Common Wealth of Massachusetts, patented the first ballpoint pen. The first patented ballpoint pen was registered in the US as No. 392, 046 on October 30th, 1888 by Mr. John J. Load.
A pen loves to be used! Ink in a fountain pen will flow most smoothly when the pen is used on a regular basis. When writing, use a constant pressure on the nib avoiding pressing down hard or excessively as that may damage the nib. Often, a problem with writing may just be due to the fact that the pen needs to be cleaned and refilled.
Now we having different types of pens to write. A pen or pencil can be an excellent gift for that special person in your life, or a nice thankyou for that dedicated employee, new boss or important customer.
