Just an update since I have not done many videos lately. Here is why and what is coming up. I also share my paltry pen mail as of late.

Give Me Liberty - 1936 Dramatization of Patrick Henry's Famous Speech
I found this movie short from 1936 one day. It is a Hollywood dramatization of Patrick Henry's speech of March 23, 1775 arguing for American independence from Britain. I had never seen it before, but wanted to share it with others. I eventually managed to find a listing for this video on https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0027678

Today, not only will I share my four newest fountain pens that were added to the collection, I will share a primer on stylograph fountain pens. Pens that were added to the collection include vintage Waterman's Stalward, a vintage Inkograph, an Aurora Style, and a Lamy ABC Student Pen.

More on Vintage Fountain Pen Collecting
I have gotten some feedback lately about my previous videos on vintage fountain pen collecting and gotten some private correspondence on the same topic. So I figured I would add to the subject a year or so after the last video on it.
