Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Valiant, this is the fat version
Manufacturer and Year Sheaffer, USA - 1950-52
Length 5-5/16"
Filling System Touchdown filler. We've restored the filling system and it's working well.
Color Evergreen green with gold plated trim. Wide 3/8" cap band.
Nib FINE large 2-tone conical 14k Triumph nib is firm. Marked with serial number 0866586. Slight "Waverley" upturn. There is a very short crack 1/16" long on the backside of the nib, just about where the edges are welded together. It does not affect the pen's function, and should remain stable. (We guarantee the filling system for a year from the date of purchase.)
Condition Excellent + condition, in box. This is a sleek, stylish pen in a nice color. The cap and barrel have light microscratching. There are some toothmarks on the blind cap, as well as a small mark on the barrel just below the blind cap. The cap band is beautiful. The bottom row of the imprint is slightly faded, but the rest is otherwise clear.
