Sale Pending

This is a Dark Green Eversharp Skyline in Standard Size from the 1940s. The green is really dark so it only shows well under bright light such as a flashlight or under the sun (See an earlier flashlight show near bottom of thread). Has a firmer fine 14K nib. It has been restored.

Firmer nibs are better for everyday usage, especially if by chance you're a student, makes it easier to quickly write with it. It's the standard size, so feels nicer in the hand without being posted the tapered tail extends past the cups of the palm in most normal hands.

It does have some plating loss mostly around the lever from posting the cap. Also has the usual light marks from usage, but no cracks and no chips. The sac is new in the last couple months and has been talc'd. And there is a breather tube installed to regulate flow and help get a better fill.

The Cap is 1/10 14K Gold Filled.

Some more pictures from when it was listed with a red one the couple weeks before.
