| Esterbrook #291 School Medium |
||
| Description: |
||
| Remarks: Descriptions in the 1876 and 1879 price lists say this pen has a bronze finish and is the old #292. Why Esterbrook would replace a pen with a lower product number isn't known and seems curious. |
||
| Reference: The existence of this pen is confirmed or surmised by the following: Listed in the Illustrated Price List of the Esterbrook Steel Pen Company, January 1, 1876; archives of Hadley Museum and Library, Wilmington, Delaware; contributed by Andrew Midkiff Listed in the Trade Price List of the Esterbrook Steel Pen Company (The American Stationer, September 4, 1879) (Contributed by Andrew Midkiff) |
