Esterbrook 129 Large Double Spring


Esterbrook #129 Large Double Spring        


Description: 

A straight-bodied pen with a sharp tip. An oval Vent hole. "L" slits at the shoulders. A wide "omega" cutout across the waist. The metal from the shoulders to the waist is folded under. This extra material serves to prevent breakage at the ends of the wide cutout. An ingeniously fashioned piece of brass could probably be wedged between the bottom tabs to serve as an under reservoir. Gray finish.



 

Remarks:   

Reference:  The existence of this pen is confirmed or surmised by the following:
