One of the classic Midwest fountain pen companies, Sheaffer soared
in popularity after introducing its unique lever-filling system in
1908. One of the most successful manufacturers throughout the golden
age of American fountain pens and well after, Sheaffer pens remain
as prized for their ease of use and durability as they are for their
vintage status--many of these remain pens that can still be put to
everday use.
Item #SP-2245 is a Sheaffer Lifetime, circa 1934, in Pearl and Black with gold-fill trim. The ambering barrel has a clear Sheaffer Pen Co. imprint. It has a lever filler and a huge heavy Medium nib-- very desirable, as nobody makes nibs like this today. There is a crack in the cap lip and some distress in the cap, known as celluloid crazing (a fine network of cracks). This pen measures 5 9/16" in length and weighs 21 grams. Except for the crack and crazing, it is in very good condition. Our Price: $200
