$ 21.09

Availability: 44 in stock

Features: Chrome Trim

Ink Color: Green

Material: Celluloid

Condition: The pen has pocket wear. When tested with warm water the pen drew in fluid and expelled a watery green ink. It will need more attention and cleaning to remove the rest of the old ink. It wrote with a smooth feel and did not scratch on the paper. When examining with a loupe there were scratches and nicks, but no cracks or splits on the cap rim or barrel. The lever feels pliable when raised, but I cannot guarantee or confirm actual condition of the bladder. It has not been restored while in my care. Sold as parts or to restore.

Nib Material: Stainless Steel

Nib Size: Fine (F)

Modified Item: No

Vintage: Yes

Brand: Esterbrook

Type: Fountain Pen

Country/Region of Manufacture: United States

Description

This appears to be an Esterbrook SJ pen with a capped length of 120mm or 4 3/4 in.. I believe it is a later version since it has the trademark R on the barrel along with " Esterbrook Made in U.S.A. ". The nib is marked " 9555 ESTERBROOK GREGG Made in U.S.A. ". The color looks like others I found that were referred to as " Foliage Green ". No returns on items sold as parts.
