Huell Houser had a show on PBS in So California that lasted for years. He sought out unusual places, hobbies, all kinds of things. He filmed his visit to a fountain pen club. He was amazing -- so enthusiastic about everything. He died a few years ago, and a lot of people still miss him.

Anyway, YouTube has posted the video, and it's so much fun to watch. Here's the link -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4M3kwt0ZPw

Thanks so much! I recognize a few people and we are only an hour or so south of there. I've passed it along to my local pen friends for fun!

I vaguely remember a story about Fred Krinke having to keep smiling while Houser tried to jam a cap on without realizing it was a screw cap. I still like the chocolate milk from Breugers that he visited twice. They put his face on the bottle.
