Product Description
Type Vintage fountain pen
Product Name 36EC - a "Flat Top" model. It's not marked, but we see this model number in a 1923 catalog, and this pen matches that description.
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer, USA -- 1910s - early 1920s. The clip is a high-mounted clip, which Sheaffer used until 1922.
Length 5"
Filling System Lever filler - working perfectly with a good sac, just replaced here at Peyton Street Pens.
Color Gold-filled overlay on black hard rubber. There is a checkered pattern on the cap and barrel.
Nib FINE Sheaffer's #3 Self-Filling gold nib is in excellent condition. There is some flexibility to it, and we've included a writing sample in the photos.
Condition Superior condition. There is microscratching and handwear on the cap and barrel. The chasing pattern is very clear. The lever has plating wear along the sides and around the open end. The clip has brassing along the sides, and a small blotch on the ball end. The imprints are slightly worn, but still easily readable and clear.
