Yes, those other things make a nice gift, but a writer digs a good pen. This is from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Makes you want to WRITE. Its beautiful pattern is by the founder of the Arts and Crafts movement, William Morris.

My father got me a Parker T-ball Jotter when I was young. I loved it. I found one in an old stationary store about 8 years ago, and gave it to my father’s 85 year old brother. He liked it so much he wouldn’t use it! Sadly, he passed on recently. I wish I knew where that pen was.
