Product Description
Type Vintage Sheaffer fountain pen.
Product Name Sheaffer Junior, this is the version that is slightly rounded with flat ends.
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer USA - circa late 1930s or early 1940s
Length 4-7/16"
Filling System Lever filler. We've restored it with a new sac and it's working perfectly.
Color Grey and white marbled with red veins and chrome trim. The grey has faded a bit to a slightly more brownish color on parts of the pen.
Nib FINE 14k Sheaffer Junior nib is firm and smooth, with nice tipping.
Condition Very nice condition. The main issue with this pen is just the plating wear, a common problem for the Juniors. There's a lot of brassing on the cap band and the ball of the clip, with lots of flecks of brassing on the rest of the clip and on the lever (see photos). As mentioned above, the color is a bit faded toward a brownish hue on areas of the barrel and cap. There are light scratches here and there, but no cracks or chips.
