Product Description
Type Snorkel fountain pen
Product Name Sentinel Snorkel
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer, made in U.S.A. -- 1952-59.
Length Pen is 5-9/16"
Filling System The fountain pen is a snorkel filler, which is working very well after we restored it with a new sac, O-ring, and point gasket.
Color Buckskin body (a pinkish rose tan color) with chrome plated cap and gold plated trim. Buckskin is considered one of the harder-to-find colors.
Nib FINE 14k gold Sheaffer's Triumph style nib is smooth and firm with nice tipping material. The nib has a slight "Waverly" upturn.
Condition Excellent condition for this gorgeous pen in a lovely color. There is light wear on the barrel, though it's difficult to see because of the color of the pen. The barrel imprint is smoothed out somewhat, but still quite legible. The cap and trim are gorgeous. No cracks, chips, dings, or dents.
