WOW... GOT IT LISTED A LITTLE EARLY!!!
This is a large sale, a bunch of pencils and then a bunch of pens!
Usual... all working unless noted, all have a 1 year warranty, if working, etc.. not sold "as-is"
Shipping... Domestic is FREE, International is $5, pay only one time, buy one or buy them all...
Payment... Paypal or Square, paypal most preferred.
How it works... Send me an email (not a PM, facebook message, or letter) at ckrantz3@msn.com, saying "I want it" not... can you send me a few more pictures, that does not reserve a pen. I will however gladly send you additional pictures, really I will. I'll confirm it's yours, and you sorta pay, in a timely fashion, please. It's that simple....
Esterbrook nib disclaimer... LOOK... I am really light on spare esterbrook nibs... So the items listed below are all going to come with a generic 2556, or 1551, or something like that, unless otherwise noted in the description. I am simply out of nibs right now. I will say they will be smooth writing, but not much variety. If you want a fine versus a medium, say something, I may be able to accommodate.
Okay.....

I Parker Vacumatic in golden pearl, debutante size, vacumatic filler, nice and clean. fine/medium 14K parker vacumatic nib, I like this one a bit better than J, but J is cleaner and has that two tone nib. Overall, this one is a nicer writer. ITEM PRICE $65 SOLD
J Parker Vacumatic in golden pearl, debutante size, vacumatic filler, even cleaner (and better clarity)than I above. fine point 14K parker vacumatic two tone nib. This one likely saw little use. ITEM PRICE $75

ITEM PRICE $225 SOLD
N Sheaffer oversized balance in black. lever fill, really clean pen. This one has a great story. Bought new in 1928 (as a flattop) every item on this was replaced, except the nib, over the original owner's lifetime. It was last serviced in the 70's, where Sheaffer told the owner, they could not honor the lifetime warranty, and offered to replace it with a 60's era left over stock imperial. The long history of service is why this flattop is now a balance, with an early style nib. Writes great, neat story. ITEM PRICE $175

P Conklin 2NL in BCHR. this one is rough, cap is terminal, bought it for parts, but decided to salvage it. I dunno what you do with the cap lip, its bad, but you can stabilize it somehow. I was thinking of applying a brass tube to make it covered. Anyway, its someone else's problem. Why save it? it has a great 14K conklin#2 fine/medium point, flex nib. cool factor? crescent filler, old, and flex nib... btw, its kinda budget priced too... ITEM PRICE $40 SOLD
Q Water Pen in black, lever fill. yes, you like it weird? here you go ya freak... this pen has a tiny ink tube that gets installed into the feed. fill it with water, it makes it's own ink. How many fills? I dunno. Does it work? not likely. Will it write for me? yes! It has been resacced, and rebuilt. I did not fill it, but if you fill it with ink, it will write like a regular pen. Fill it with water? I dunno. It has one new capsule installed, otherwise it would leak out. 4 more in the compartment in the back of the barrel. nice warranted 14K fine flex nib. ITEM PRICE $90
