Featured Vintage Pens - Conklin Endura

The Duragraph was introduced in the second quarter of 1924 in Black Hard Rubber and Red Hard Rubber, both as a crescent-fill and a lever-fill. It came with a lifetime guarantee covering both accident and wear. These were only manufactured for a few months and are very rare today. “Toledo” nibs were used. The senior size men’s models were extra long – 5 1/4″ closed and 7 ½” with the cap posted. “Medium ” and “Short” models, were both designed to be almost 6″ long with the cap posted.

Eversharp Kimberly Pockette Vintage Ball Pen

Eversharp was in dire straights with the failure of their “Fifth Avenue” model pen and their ballpoint, the “CA” was unreliable. Along came the Kimberly Company who in 1947 introduced and successfully manufactured a reliable ball pen. Several companies sued Kimberly for patent infringement, including Eversharp. Eversharp acquired an interest (eventually owning the company in 1955) and Kimberly became an exclusive Eversharp brand. It was discontinued in 1957 when Parker acquired Eversharp. The “Pockette” was Kimberly’s first ball pen, 3 ½” closed and 5 1/8″ open, the same length as the Parker jotter. All the pens below are working and have modern refills. [Buy all 12 at $300.]
