Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name No Nonsense, this is one of the nicer "Old Timer" models which have gold plated trim and nib, and a small top piece the same color as the body of the pen. (They called this particular color Le Black. You can distinguish between this pen and the black "Vintage" No Nonsense by the fact that it is slightly longer by 1/16" from the regular No Nonsense pens. This increase in length is due to a small black piece that Sheaffer fitted to the top of the cap which effectively plugged the indentation and gave the pen it's flat top. You can see a small line at the top of the cap, where this insert sits.)
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer - circa 1990s or 2000s.
Length 5-3/16"
Filling System takes Sheaffer cartridges or converters, or you can fill it with bottled ink via the included converter.
Color Black with gold plated trim.
Nib MEDIUM two tone gold plated steel nib. It's fairly smooth and quite firm. The nib itself looks like a Prelude nib which has been installed in a No Nonsense section.
Condition Very nice condition with a couple of small scratches on the cap and barrel. The gold plated trim is just a little bit worn, but shows no brassing. It's working well.
