Dries of The Pencil Case Blog reviews the Esterbrook Sparkle

Dries of The Pencil Case Blog reviews the Esterbrook Sparkle “What’s also striking, is the size of the Estie Oversized! I probably should’ve seen that coming, since the regular model is already pretty much an oversized pen. But I was still quite surprised when I first opened the box. It’s an absolutely huge pen, and
