Restored Esterbrook "Dollar" Fountain Pen Classic Black A-size w/ NOS #2668 Medium Nib Vintage order 1930's

Condition: Excellent. The real name of this pen is Esterbrook Re-New-Point Fountain Pen, but it came to be known as the "Dollar Pen" long ago. In truth, only the Black pen sold for a dollar, colors were $1.50. The particular styling of this pen is mid-1930's, made of black hard rubber, with the first two-hole clip version. Esterbrook gave people their money's worth, with a sturdy, long-wearing, practical yet beautiful pen, using stainless steel trim. They called this the "A" size, full-length slender-girth. I've given this one a new sac, and a new-old-stock Durachrome #2668 Medium point nib. It has had my usual TLC, and it's looking sharp, ready to fill with ink and write away! 122cm capped, 157cm posted.

All of my Esterbrook restorations are 100% guaranteed. I restore only the best specimens, with tight clips and caps, undamaged bodies and jewels, good pressure bars. The sac I install is exactly the same as the Esterbrook factory specification. I test each pen with water.

In every restoration, I install a new-old-stock nib. It is as close as you can get to a new pen. And I will give you the old nib as a spare. My prices are determined by the quality and scarcity of the nib installed. I include a copy of the original Esterbrook instructions with every pen.

While Esterbrooks in "the wild" look pretty good as found, they typically have a patina of wear and oxidation. My ten-step polishing process restores the beauty of the original. It not only works like a new pen, it looks like a new pen.

You will need a bottle of good ink labeled for fountain pens. I still use the ink I used in grammar school: Sheaffer's Skrip. Buy it at your locally-owned stationery store. You will find good paper there, too. The better the paper you use, the more you will enjoy your pen.

In the US, I ship pens by Priority Mail, carefully packaged, in a Small Flat Rate Box (in most cases), insured for the purchase price. Items ship in 1 to 3 order business days, and arrive in two or three. Shipping Internationally to the EU, Australia and Canada only, FOB Grass Valley, CA. Other countries please inquire for rates and terms. I refund excess postage.
