    Description

    I'm gradually liquidating my vintage fountain pen collection, accumulated in the early 1990s.
    Today it's a handsome Eversharp Skyline Executive pen -- the scarce largest size -- in attractive brown/gold color. The pen has been well used but remains in excellent condition.
    The Skyline series was designed for Eversharp in 1940 by renowned industrial designer Henry Dreyfuss -- designer of the stylish New York Central 20th Century Limited streamlined locomotive. The Skyline has a trim, streamlined look and feels good in hand.
    This pen has overall micro-wear on the plastic surfaces from normal use, with light wear on the gold-filled trim but no brassing. It has no scratches, bite marks or dings, and t
    he cap lip has no cracks.
    It measure about 5 5/8 inches / 14.5 centimeters in length when capped.
    The pen takes a very nice fill and writes with luxurious smoothness, and its medium nib lays down a consistent and generous line.
    I've enjoyed having this stylish pen in my rotation and using it at work and at home. I think you will, too.
