After a series of failures, Laszlo Biro perfected the ballpoint pen in the 1940s. His design integrated a tiny ball to draw ink to the pen's tip as it moves across a surface. The invention became a favorite of artists because of its ability to produce uniform lines. Our collection of ballpoint pen posters features images of the ingenious tool even fine artists like to use.
