Description: Restored Vintage Sheaffer EXCELLENT FIRST YEAR Sentinel SnorkelGold Snorkel Tube14k Medium Point Length capped - 5 1/2"Point - Medium DescriptionThis Pastel Gray first year Sentinel Snorkel is in excellent restored condition. There are no dings, cracks, or scratches. The 14k gold Triumph nib has been tuned for smooth writing and proper ink flow (please see the photo of a writing sample). This Version of the Snorkel Snorkel pens made in the first year of production (1952) were equipped with a 14k gold Snorkel tube. The company didn't advertise or otherwise publicize this and it wasn't until sometime in the 1960s when a pair of collectors sent a tube for assay that the first-year Snorkels became collectibles. Sheaffer's Snorkel Sentinel is a White Dot model featuring a 14k gold Triumph nib with platinum mask. Other premium features include a stainless steel cap with gold-filled cap band and a gold-filled, spring loaded clip. I will include a photocopy of an original Sheaffer's Snorkel instructions leaflet. All restorations include disassembly, cleaning, replacement of all seals and the sac, smoothing and adjusting the nib, refinishing the plastic, stainless steel, and gold-filled surfaces, filling the pen with ink (not just dipping) and producing multiple writing samples over 2 days (like the ones in the photos). I guarantee the pens I restore write smoothly and fill as designed.Payment is expected within 3 days. Free USPS First Class shipping in cardboard box. Shipping to US addresses only. All shipping materials are biodegradable. NOTE:I'm sorry but I ship only to residents of the US.
