This is a much delayed listing of vintage fountain pens and a few mechanical pencils.  I accept payment by paypal and will ship the pens, at buyer’s choice, either first class for $5 or priority for $7.  List of pens w/ descriptions below the pictures.  Please see the pictures and writing samples and feel free to ask me questions by email at jdweiss427@gmail.com.  I am open to offers on multiple pen purchases.  Thanks, Jordan Weiss

5. Parker 51, Teal, fountain pen and pencil.  Aerometric Fill.  1948.  Approx. fine/xf nib.  Filling system works. Pencil mechanism works. $85 $75
6. Parker 50 Falcon Flighter.  C/c fill; converter not included.  Clip is a bit loose but can probably be tightened.  Approx. fine/xf nib.  $80 $70
7. Parker 45, black.  Stainless cap.  C/c fill; converter not included, but does have an empty cartridge inside it.  Marked medium nib. $15 $12
8. Sheaffer Oversize White Dot flat top lever filler.  Large lifetime nib approx. Medium nib.  Some scuffing to the barrel.  Cap ring heavily brassed and loose- spins. Engraved neatly “C. Du Vernoy”.  Sac has been replaced; pen fills and writes well.  Nice user grade pen.  $50 Sold
9. Waterman #12 BHR eyedropper with super flexible nib.  Very light fading to an even dark brown. Strong imprint on barrel and butt.  Super flexible nib- see the writing samples.  Very slight railroading from medium speed writing- no railroading with careful, slow writing.  When making the writing sample for this, and other flexible pen nibs, I do not push the nibs as far as they can go; the ultimate user could likely get a little bit more line variation out of the pen.  $150 Sold
10. Waterman 52 ½ v Ripple Fountain Pen and Pencil Set with flexible nib.  Slight brassing to the cap ring.  Please see the writing sample.  Very slight railroading from this pen.  Ultimate user could probably safely get a bit more line variation out of the pen as I try to be very careful with flex nibs especially when I will be selling the pen. $150 $100
11. Esterbrook SJ in red.  2668 nib.  Original Esterbrook sac, still pliable.  I have talced the sac.  Pen fills.  Jewels intact.  $25
12. Esterbrook J Transitional with uncommon 3 ribbed jewel, black.  2668 nib.  Sac replaced.  Pen fills.  Very small chip to the jewel- only noticeable upon close inspection.  $40 $35
13. Esterbrook Dollar Pencil in red.  Mechanism works.  Clip is a bit loose; likely can be tightened.  $15 $10
14. Parker Vacumatic Emerald mechanical pencil.  First generation pencil with colored, striped jewel.  Approx. debutante sized. Mechanism works. Includes eraser built into extra lead cartridge, which includes 6 replacement leads.  $35
15. Eversharp Skyline demi in brown with gold filled cap.  Mint, never inked, with original price band.  Pen has a fine manifold nib, as indicated on the band.  I left the unused, pliable sac in but added some talc to the outside of the sac.  I saw no indications of this having met ink and I haven’t inked it.  Slight brassing to cap.  $75 $65
16. Flex nib Eversharp Skyline demi in burgundy with plastic, striped cap.  Mint, never inked, with original price band.  Pen has a flexible medium nib, as indicated on the band.  I left the unused, pliable sac in but added some talc to the outside of the sac.  I saw no indications of this having met ink and I haven’t inked it.  $175. $165
