The Fountain Pens of Esterbrook (1992) by Paul Hoban. A 64-page work outlining the history and writing instruments of the Esterbrook Pen Company, which was founded in 1858 by a transplanted English Quaker, and held the fifth registered trade mark issued by the U. S. Government.
This amazing company actually expanded during the Great Depression (1932 - 1940), while most pen companies, including the "Big 4" (Parker, Waterman, Sheaffer and Wahl/Eversharp) experienced greately reduced sales, and many other pen companies closed altogether. The book contains 4 color plates showing examples of the fountain pen products from the turn of the century thru the 1960s in actual size, and a reprint of the entire 1939 Esterbrook catalog. - SOLD OUT
