Esterbook black Deluxe LK fountain pen (K193)

Description

Esterbrook black Deluxe LK lever filler. Correct smooth wet medium 2556 nib unit. Plating very nice and cap is ding and dent free and has very light use or drawer wear. Bladder appears to be pliable. Very nice shiny color. Deep imprint. Importantly for this model, no marks from posting the cap on the soft plastic of the body.  A very nice lightly used example of this higher end early 50's model.
K numbers are the summer of 2022 picks.
