Masters of Fountain Pens: Matsuya Fountain Pen Hospital Store Tour Nagasaki [長崎旅行] マツヤ万年筆病院 長崎店

Another day, another fountain pen store tour. Matsuya Fountain Pen Hospital is particularly special because it also has long history and I love how they stay on brand. The store gives a very homey feel. They also designed the entire store to encourage visitors to test the pens themselves. They can also give you a lot of solid advice on how to choose your first ever fountain pen (or the next pen to add to your collection).

When you get a chance to go to Nagasaki, I strongly suggest you give this store a visit. It will be worth the trip. You may also want to stay there for at least an hour HAHAHAHA

MONTEGRAPPA | Genio Creativo Antonio Canova

To honour the world’s greatest artists, writers and thinkers, Montegrappa created the Genio Creativo series of pens. Each represents the achievements of an intellectual or artistic giant in a writing instrument that embodies the spirit of a specific work, as interpreted by Montegrappa’s artisans. Joining writer and philosopher Kahlil Gibran and the artist Vecellio Tiziano, known as Titian, is the sculptor Antonio Canova.

Antonio Canova (1 November 1757 – 13 October 1822) was an Italian sculptor famous for his work in marble. Often regarded as the greatest of the neoclassical artists, his work was inspired by the Baroque and the classical revival, but made more contemporary by dispensing with the melodrama of the former and adding a human element to the latter.

Genio Creativo for Canova
A limited edition of 260 fountain pens and 260 rollerball pens, the exact number of years since Canova’s birth will be offered with polished bronze trim, black resin and a pen barrel made in a special marble composite, depicting in miniature his famous sculpture The Graces or “Le Grazie”. A further 12 fountain and 12 rollerball pens will be produced with solid 18K gold trim, representing the number of collaborators who worked with Canova.

Recalling the visual presence of Canova’s sculptures, the marble element is naturally grey. According to legend, Canova would pass over the freshly-chiselled, once-white stone with a cloth soaked with water, the same one used to wash the sculpting tools. The stone would absorb the dirt and acquire a more natural look.

Further details paying homage to Canova are the signature clip in the form of a pleated drape with which the artist used to clad his models, while the bronze or gold trim enriched with decorative motifs often crowning antique amphorae. The Genio Creativo Canova Fountain pen is cartridge or converter fed, and the nib is in 18k gold, engraved with the same symbol as the cap top, signifying the heraldic coat of arms of the family.

Sheaffer Pens During WWII: Short Film from 1943

A short Jam Handy Productions film, most likely made as a training film for their salespeople, where Sheaffer Pens explains what they're doing for the war effort and why the supply of pens they produce is small. It's interesting to see what kinds of components they were making, and how the industrial output was changed from pens to things like frequency tuners for aircraft.

The film also includes some great footage about the Triumph nib, Scrip, and other fountain pen stuff for those interested in fountain pens and their history. You even get to see and hear the original Mr. W. A. Sheaffer and his son Craig Sheaffer.

The video is from a VHS tape. I don't remember where I got the original but it was at least 12 years ago. The quality is not great, but it's still fun to watch.
