David Nishimura Vintage Fountain Pens & Writing EquipmentEsterbrook Renew-Point Nib Units

One of the many advanced features of Esterbrook's fountain pens was an easily-interchangeable nib unit that screwed into the section.  A great variety of replacement units was offered; unfortunately, these can prove all too difficult to come by today.

To date, we have had good fortune in periodically finding old hoards of new old stock nib units, but these are clearly not a renewable resource!  Broad, flexible, and italic/stub nibs in particular have become quite hard to find.  Our current offerings offer a wide selection: don't miss out, as past experience indicates that many nib models will sell out quickly.  Stock up now, while these are still available!

Nib Unit Quantity Price
1461 (rigid fine manifold) $8
1550 (firm extra fine Bookkeeping) $8
1554 (firm fine Clerical) $8
1555 (firm fine Gregg) $8

Also some deluxe nibs with longer-wearing, extra-hard tipping material, from Esterbrook's Master Durachrome series (9xxx), as well as a limited number of harder-to-find nibs of a more calligraphic nature.
