My desk had a hole for an inkwell, but we kept our ink in the bottles
it came in.
The inkwells were used in the days of dip pens. In the late 60s, I was
probably in 4th grade when we graduated to fountain pens. Since they
didn't need to be constantly reloaded with ink, the desk inkwell became
obsolete.
