[[Esterbrook]] was founded in [[1856]] in Camden in New Jersey, by ''Richard Esterbrook'', a Cornish Quaker, who was an immigrant in the United States. He was a stationery, and had assisted to the move from goose pen down to steel nibs. Foretelling a great opportunity in the United States nib market expansion he took five English craftsmen (by the ''John Mitchell'' firm of Birmingham) and then start producing steel nibs in the U.S.A.
