I was in a local antique mall and singing a siren song to me was a blue Esterbrook SJ. This is my first real venture into vintage pens, as the first was a gift from my mom of my dad's Sheaffer Sentinel pen & pencil set from 1948. When I tried the lever I heard a distinct crunch of a dried out sac. I promptly ordered what I needed from Anderson Pens and tried to wait patiently for the supplies to arrive. The whole process of replacing the sac went surprisingly well considering that I have never done anything along these lines with a pen. So here it is, cleaned, new sac, and full of ink ....and somehow there is another coming later in the week😃 I think these pens might be like potato chips and I can't have too many. This pen is a deep, beautiful blue, but my camera just doesn't show its true color.
