Product Description
Type Vintage fountain pen in superior working condition
Product Name Sheaffer flat top (not an actual product line name). This is one of the uncataloged slender orange/color pens with the low mounted clip discussed here .... this discussion between Sheaffer experts David Isaacson and Roger Wooten gave us a headache as we tried to separate the info from the bombast, but maybe you'll get something out of it. It is not a 3-25 because it lacks the 3-25 nib and isn't marked 3-25 on the cap.
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer USA --(low mounted clip)
Length 5-1/4"
Filling System Lever filler - working perfectly with a good sac, just replaced here at Peyton Street Pens.
Color Orange radite (the same color as red hard rubber, but it's plastic). Gold plated trim.
Nib #5 gold fine nib is in outstanding condition with a lot of tipping material. Very little flex. It is probably a later replacement.
Condition Lovely condition with no scratches, and very little hand wear. No cracks. Excellent imprints. The trim has some small dots of brassing on the clip ball, but that is all.
