This is a collection of Fountain Pen Articles, Fountain Pen Histories and Fountain Pen Essays that have been published either online or in obscure books or jorunals. Things that I found while doing research on other pen topics and I thought were too good to be lost to obscurity and should be put online where a Google search could unearth them easily for the fountain pen enthusiast and fountain pen researcher.. If you know of an article that should be placed here, please let me know.
Feel free to use this information as you like, but I would appreciate a mention for the Kamakura pens site if you publish an article, or book with information gathered here. Recently, I have seen people publish pen articles exclusively from my archive with out any mention at all and that always breaks my heart.

PEN POINT IN THROAT
FOR TWENTY YEARS
SALEM, Ore., Oct_ 7.—A gold pen
point was swallowed by J. F. Young,
25, when he was a small child
He has just coughed it up.
Young has been troubled with
poor health and coughing spells since
he first swallowed the pen nib and
physicians now say it was probably
:the source of his trouble
The point was found to be in
good condition, Indicating, physicians
said, that it had lodged somewhere
in the throat. The remainder of the
nib. however, was badly corroded
, showing it had been exposed to acid
or digestive juices or air
