Esterbrook 1554 Firm Fine Fountain Pen Nib Only, New in Box

This auction is for 1 Esterbrook nib 1554 nib only. This is a "firm fine" and on the box (not included) it says, "Clerical." So, no doubt, it was marketed to book keepers, accountants and other "posters."This nib is interchangeable with 33+ others by simply screwing the point out of the pen and screwing a new one back in its place. Here’s what you will receive: 1. The nib described above. The nib is new, never inked or dipped.2. You will also receive a good copy of an old Esterbrook magazine ad. These nibs fit all of the Esterbrook pens made in America from about 1935 until they went out of business in the early seventies. The uniqueness and really big reason that has driven the collectabilty of the pens and nibs (also distinguishing them from nearly all other makers) is that each nib is engineered to easily screw in and out of the section at the top of the barrel anytime and for whatever reason you want. Changing nibs is effortless and requires no experience. Many Esterbrook users owned 1 pen but bought several different type nibs and changed them out at their pleasure instead of having to take the pen to the pen store or having to send the pen back to the manufacturer when a change was necessary or desirable. The Red and White boxes constitute the 1000 Series and 2000 Series of Esterbrook’s Renew Points, These nibs have, as their writing surface, a continuation of the chrome , rolled up and formed into a writing surface, that the rest of the nib is made of. I have yet to wear one out. The green boxes constitute the Master Series, or the 9000 Series, which were always more expensive because their writing surface consists of applied Iridium. (They called their particular alloy “Osmiridium.")And of course, international buyers are responsible for whatever import fees may be imposed by their country.
