The Esterbrook Pen Company, a true American Original, is rewriting its long success story in modern times with a fresh new pen collection based on a complete rebranding. Esterbook began manufacturing nibs in the USA in the mid-1800s, but the 1930s were a period of importance, as they introduced their first interchangeable nib system in 1933. The interchangeable nibs gave the user many options for writing in school, business, personal and the like. Today, a similar system is reborn with the Estie and the specially engineered ‘Modern to Vintage’ (MV) Nib Adapter (sold separately). The MV adapter delivers a vintage nib experience with a modern shaped Esterbrook pen. ESTIE COLLECTION Estie is a modern-day nickname for the brand and a symbol of 1930s nostalgia, a time when fountain pens were an integral part of life and communication for most Americans. The Estie has a clean and understated design with a bandless center and a sleek and narrow pocket clip. The fountain pen can be inked with either cartridge or the included converter and is equipped with the popular size six JOWO German steel nib and the cushion cap closure.
