Product Name First Year Sheaffer Snorkel Signature. See this helpful article on the Penhero web site.
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer, made in USA -- 1952-3, based off of the 14k snorkel tube.
Length 5-5/8 inches.
Filling System Snorkel filler with a 14k gold snorkel tube. We've restored it with a new sac, point gasket, and O-ring and tested the pen thoroughly. It's working very well and we'll send instructions on how to use the snorkel filling system.
Color Black cap and body, and 14k gold plated trim, and a 3/8 inch wide cap band that is solid 14k.
Nib MEDIUM Sheaffer's 14k triumph nib with palladium masking. The two-tone nib has a waverly upturn.
Condition Superior condition with handwear. No cracks or chips. No bite marks. The 14k cap band has been personalized with a signature, but we can't read it very well. It looks like it says something similar to, "Kieston." The imprint is very clear.
