Product Description
Type Vintage Sheaffer fountain pen.
Product Name Sheaffer Junior (the imprint is clear), this is the version with flat ends.
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer, made in USA – circa 1934-5 (this clip began production in '34 or '35, and this color ran from '31 to '35).
Length Just barely over 4-7/16"
Filling System Lever filler. We've replaced the sac and it's working perfectly.
Color Red Veined Grey Pearl with chrome plated trim, the flattened ball clip, and a single thin cap band.
Nib FLEXIBLE FINE 14k Sheaffer Junior nib. These flexible "Junior" nibs are quite desireable. (Not all Junior nibs are flexible, FYI.) This one is smooth with nice tipping material, and a little less than what we would call full flex, with easy line variation from fine to a thinner broad.
Condition Very nice condition. There's some plating wear on the trim, many small scratches and some spots of brassing. There's some wear on the cap and barrel, and some bite marks on the top of the cap. No cracks or chips, dings or dents. The imprint is very crisp and clear, and there is no personalization. It's fully restored and working well.
