To me, these Eversharp Skyliner fountain pens are the ultimate in Golden Age writing implements. These are the only ones I have, so far, but I'm always in the market for more, working, or non-working. What's your favorite item from this Golden Age?

I love...

The gold-filled Wahl-Eversharp pens (got three).
Parkers (got several of those).
Sheaffer Balances (got three).
Conklins (got two).

...I have over three dozen vintage & modern fountain pens in my collection. Ranging from 1900-2010.

I have one very nice Parker that is gold filled (nothing solid gold) that is really nice. However I cannot find it! I know where my ink bottle is at, but the Pen seems to be missing in action!

The Sheaffer Balance is an iconic pen of the 30s. You gotta love it. I love mine. Very comfortable and perfect for long-haul writing.

Pen I'm currently using is a 1922 Wahl Art Deco Oversize. Gold-filled. Writing out story-notes with it.
