Paul E. Wirt fountain pens & the Museum of Fountain Pen Filling Systems

My main interest is vintage fountain pens, typically pre WWII vintage fountain pens. I focus on brands that are less commonly collected, and the older the better. The earliest pens have a fascinating variety of feed design, and later, interesting filling systems.

I hope to share my passion for Paul E. Wirt fountain pens which was the first major brand from the time before Parker, Sheaffer, Waterman and Conklin took the mantle as the “Big Four.”

I also hope to interest pen lovers in the weird and wonderful world of fountain pen filling systems.
