View Full Version : WTB: Eversharp Skyline

Howdy pen nerds!
I am mostly a Sheaffer person but I would like to try a Skyline. Oddly, I have never owned one.
I am somewhat finicky about the ones I like (and don't) and just have never had one roll across my radar in a finish I like, in full size & at a fair price.
Anyone have a Skyline too many?
Flex is nice but not mandatory for me, but I am also not into spidery lines so xfs are out if they are hard nibs.
I adore the red/green stripe, the Dubonnet Red, brown, etc.
(also open to a Symphony, those are lovely)
Thought I would give this a shot.

Gary Weimer has one on his Etsy site Midnight Pens. I recommend buying one from him (he posts on FPN).

I received one from Womanobessed, which I enjoy, enough that woud like to score a brother or sister for this sweet little old pen. No luck or follow through from Midnight pens so bumping this thread.
bumpity!

I highly recommend you take a look at the modern (produced since 2015) Wahl-Eversharp Empire pens. They are the modernised Skylines made out of beautifull celluloids!

Bump to say it took nearly 5 months but Midnight pens has some sticktoitness. There is a tl;dr i'll spare you but Gary did come through and did send me a nice one that is a good writer and handsome.
Thank you to Lady Onogaro for the reccomendation. It was a very good one. He really came through and found me one that fit my needs perfectly.
I also got a really sharp looking one off WomanObssessed so I now have 2 Skylines and really dig them. Fun pens.
Thanks all.

I have a Yellow Cab Edition, but not sure that's what you're looking for.
