Product Description
Type Vintage ring top fountain pen
Product Name Sheaffer Lifetime (there's a Lifetime nib and a white dot)
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer, USA -- 1930s.
Length 4-9/16"
Filling System Lever filler - working perfectly with a new sac. We guarantee the filling system for a year from the date of purchase.
Color Black and pearl radite. Gold plated trim.
Nib MEDIUM Lifetime gold nib. There is a crack descending from the breather hole, but this does not affect the writing and will not get worse unless someone tries to see if this pen will flex - it will NOT! Lots of tipping material, and quite firm.
Condition Very nice color with some discoloration on the barrel. Minor scratches and handwear. Excellent imprint. No brassing on the cap but some plating wear on the lever. As is common with these black and pearl Lifetimes, there are cracks in the celluloid cap material which do not extend to the edge. The ringtop hardware looks great. The White Dot is perfect.
