Product Description
Type Fountain pen in excellent condition with an uncommon nib
Product Name Skyline (full size)
Manufacturer and Year Eversharp, USA -- 1940s.
Length 5-1/4"
Filling System Lever filling system. We replaced the sac and it's working well.
Color "Silver Gray" plastic. It is a solid gray on the tan side of gray. It has a narrow gold cap band and gold filled trim.
Nib EXTRA FINE FLEXIBLE 14k nib. It's got nice tipping and feels smooth. We do consider this fully flexible based on the easy line variation. See the writing sample below. This nib has incredible hairlines. It is also a rather large nib, with long graceful tines, when compared to standard Skyline nibs. We believe this was a special order nib.
Condition Excellent + condition. As a whole the pen looks great with no cracks, chips, or personalization. There are some marks on the barrel near the step down and there are bite marks on the cap derby. There is a dent in the trim part of the derby that matches the bite marks. Thee trim has some brassing. The trim imprints are clear. The pen is fully restored and working well.
