This year, for the second time, the Museum of Calligraphy and History of Writing will be the partner of Fountain Pen Day. On this occasion we will be able to see exhibits from the series: ‘A School Notebook: 1819 – 2019’.
During the exhibition school notebooks will be presented, among which the oldest is 200 years old (dates from 1819). It will also be possible to see notebooks from the mid and end of the 19th century, the beginning of the 20th century, the 1970s and contemporary ones. This exhibition shows how the school notebook has changed, and with it the primer letter, over the past 200 years.
