Product Description
Type Vintage snorkel filling fountain pen, restored and working well.
Product Name Triumph (snorkel version) with a white dot on the cap. This is the top of the line for snorkels, not counting the solid gold models. This pen is un-engraved.
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer, made in USA -- 1952-9.
Length 5-1/2".
Filling System Snorkel filler. We've fully restored it with a new sac, O-ring, and point gasket, and it's working very well. We'll send instructions for using this filling system.
Color Gold-filled cap and barrel with a pattern of grouped vertical lines. Black section.
Nib Medium 14k two-tone Triumph nib is firm and smooth with nice tipping material.
Condition Excellent condition. No personalization. Both cap and barrel have light scratching, and a few spots of wear scattered throughout. There is some plating wear along the bottom of the cap, but no brassing. The cap has small dents at the very top, and the end of the barrel has similar dents. There is a detailed shot of these areas in the photos below. Plunger cap looks fantastic, no bite marks. The imprint at the cap lip is quite worn; we can only barely make out "Made in USA". The pen is fully restored and working perfectly.
