Product Description
Type Fountain pen, restored and working well
Product Name Clipper Snorkel. (The Clipper is like the Sentinel, but with a PdAg nib instead of a two-tone 14k nib.)
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer, made in USA - 1952-59
Length 5-1/2"
Filling System Snorkel filler. We've restored it with a new sac, O-ring and point gasket, and it's working perfectly. We'll send instructions on how to use the filling system.
Color Black body with stainless steel cap and gold plated trim. The cap has a pattern of lines in it. White dot.
Nib EXTRA FINE Palladium-silver alloy (PdAg) Triumph style nib. Uncommon nib with only "Sheaffer's" imprinted, we have to assume it is PdAg.
Condition Very Nice condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. The barrel is better than the cap, with only light scratching. The barrel just below the cap has some scuffs. There are some bite marks on the blind cap. The cap band has brassing around the lower edge. There is moderate scratching on the cap. The clip has an area of plating wear and pitting on the top right edge. The top of the cap has some denting. The white dot looks good. The imprints are clear.
