Description;

This is a nice example of the ever-popular Imperial Fountain Pen made by Sheaffer. It dates from around 1970 and was made in the USA. It is finished in the less common Grey with gold filled trim to the clip and deep cap band.

The pen is fitted with an inlaid Broad nib which writes very smoothly. Broad nibs are quite a surprise on Sheaffer pens! A rare event!

The pen uses the very reliable Touchdown pump filling system which has been fully serviced with a new seal and sac.

The condition is very good with only very light wear marks.

Condition: Grade A
