Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Skyline Demi
Manufacturer and Year Eversharp, USA -- circa 1940
Length Demi size, 4-13/16"
Filling System Lever filling system. We've restored it with a new sac and tested it extensively. It's working well.
Color Black barrel with 1/10 14k gold filled cap. This version of the cap has lines running lengthwise and is called the "Longitudinal Lined" cap .... it is less common than the version with rings running around the cap.
Nib MANIFOLD MEDIUM 14k nib. The nib has nice tipping material and writes very smoothly. The accent line around the tines is a bit faded but it doesn't affect writing.
Condition Very nice condition. The cap has several tiny dents and the cap lip is a bit out of round. It still threads on well though and does not scratch the barrel. The derby looks very good with very little plating wear on the sides of the derby trim. The clip has some brassing but it's not noticable in hand. The barrel has a few hairline scratches and the pen overall has handwear. It's certainly a used pen, but it's still quite attractive with this uncommon and desirable cap. The pen is working well.
