Review: My Trapper Keeper is so HAPPY! - I was cleaning out an attic and found (3) unopened packages of these pens. I thought I hit a goldmine until I opened one of the packages and realized that after 30+ years, the ink had dried out. I immediately had a core memory unlocked and had to find these pens again. To no surprise, they don't make them in the US. But I found these pens on desertcart.com for approx. $21 and they shipped to me from overseas. Money so well spent. This was my FAVORITE pen back in the 80's. They wrote smoother than butter and I took them everywhere with me. Remember having to write out long essays in those lined blue books? This was the only pen style that didn't make my hand cramp up. Now I'm 55 years old and love using my nostalgic pens any chance I get.
