The pictures are representative of the pen you will receive.  It is not the actual pen.  We have sold many Esterbrooks from this auction. 

In PayPal, there is a place you can send "note to seller" with your color/nib choice.  Or you can send an ebay message.  If you do not tell us what you want within our ebay handling time, we'll send you our best "seller's choice."

 As an Esterbrook fan, you probably know each color varied from lighter to darker, depending on the day it was made and the dye lot.  So your green (etc.) may not look exactly like the green in the pictures.

If you choose to buy more than one, you will only pay shipping on the first pen.
