Esterbrook J And Pastel Series Photo Thread

[Carguy]

I have most of the pastel colors in my collection but they simply don’t get used….would love to sell or trade them one day.

It's probably my monitor, but your J looks like peach to me, just as it did in the repair thread. It could be the background is affecting the hue. With examples of both in my collection, it's easy to see how different monitors might affect the outcome.

oh, you're right. I didn't know they came in peach  

(just went and looked that up)

 

The colour is correct (visually) as what you don't see in the pic is the colorchecker I used to set the white balance of the photo!

Thanks for the correction, today I learned a couple things, both courtesy of you!

they go for serious money in good shape (mine isn't, so I paid what it was worth)

Glad to help having learned the hard way. BTW, once your fp is repaired, there might be an available matching pencil I know of. Just keep it between us. 'K?

Never mind. Saw your reply in the Repair thread. Just two ships passing. Apologies.

Having a matching pencil is never a bad thing…
