Modified Item: No

Features: Chrome Trim

Ink Color: Green

Material: Celluloid

Country/Region of Manufacture: United States

Nib Material: Stainless Steel

Vintage: Yes

Brand: Esterbrook

Type: Fountain Pen

Nib Size: Fine (F)

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.

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.
