Meet the Camden Fountain Pen, named for the New Jersey city where Richard Esterbrook settled his company. The Camden celebrates the town’s 1930s heyday, when it was home to some of the most important innovations of the 20th century. Camden was the birthplace of RCA Victor where, in 1933, an experimental TV station broadcast would be the first sign of a technology that would ultimately eclipse the radio. As RCA was producing millions of records, Esterbrook was producing millions of pens—and as records have made their comeback in the last decade, so too, has the American fountain pen. Designed for ultimate comfort when writing, the Camden features a contoured grip section and a satin-like finish with a grain that harkens to the grooves on a record. The pen is balanced with a weight that feels substantial without feeling like, well, heavy metal. Whether you are penning daily notes, journaling, planning or writing the next great tune for the American songbook, the Camden will likely become a standard in your collection. Fine or Medium.
