The Eversharp Skyline fountain pen, a notable piece of history, is being auctioned by RR Auction. Designed by industrial designer Henry Dreyfuss in 1940, this pen is recognized for its sleek design inspired by the New York Central 20th Century Limited locomotive. Most famously, Admiral Sir Bruce Fraser used this pen to sign the Instrument of Surrender aboard the USS Missouri on September 2, 1945, marking the end of World War II in the Pacific. The pen features a dark barrel and a 14-karat gold-filled cap, engraved with 'Japanese Surrender 1945'. The auction lot includes a display stand, a photograph of Fraser during the signing, and a first edition of a book discussing Fraser's correspondence with Winston Churchill. Fraser's personal use of this pen during the historic event adds to its value, as he initially used it to sign the official Allied copy before switching to a table pen for the Japanese version. The auction runs from May 19 to June 10, attracting collectors and history enthusiasts alike.
