Vintage Pens: Eagle Farmers’ National Bank

Description

What did it take to get this fancy pen at a bank? What we are calling the Eagle Farmers’ National Bank fountain pen was a pretty classy writing instrument for the namesake bank to give out in Salina, Kansas. Check out that cap imprint. This vintage pen remains in excellent condition, too. Minimal chocolate hazing to the black hard rubber. Nice golden barrel bands. The section comes off this eyedropper pen smoothly. No cracks, light wear. You will write a nice semi-flexible line from extra-fine to about 1mm wide. The 14k gold nib has some feedback, but the line variation is worth it. 13.2cm capped.
