Could anyone give a list of the different sizes of Esterbrooks.

Does the letter after the name means size?


Sorry those are very newbie questions but I just found an Estie.

The common sizes of Esterbrooks are indicated by the letter (or two): J, LJ or SJ

J is the "standard size", longer than the SJ (short J) and wider than the LJ (long J). I believe that J and LJ may be the same length, and SJ and J are the same width, but those are the three sizes for normal Esterbrooks. Other types of Esterbrooks such as pens without end jewels may follow different sizing.

Following up on nmb's post, the J and LJ are 5" in length. The SJ is 4.75" in length.

And the SJ and LJ are the same width, the J is wider.
