Sheaffer Snorkel Clipper Pen Pencil Set NOS Medium PdAg Nib Boxed 1950s For Sale

THE RESTORATION LEDGER Sheaffer Snorkel Clipper New Old Stock Pen & Pencil Set · Black · Medium Palladium Silver Nib

This is a new-old-stock Sheaffer Snorkel Clipper fountain pen and matching mechanical pencil set from the 1950s. The set combines black barrels with lined polished stainless-steel caps, gold-filled trim and Sheaffer White Dots.

THE SET

The fountain pen retains its original Clipper price label showing a retail price of $18.50. The original outer box is marked for the complete $26.00 pen-and-pencil ensemble. The original Sheaffer presentation case and matching mechanical pencil are included as well as the original Sheaffer filling instructions.

NIB & FILLING SYSTEM

The fountain pen is fitted with Sheaffer’s conical Triumph-style palladium-silver nib with a factory Medium designation and uses the company’s Snorkel filling system.

NEW OLD STOCK CONDITION

The pen and pencil appear unused and retain strong gloss and clean trim. No restoration has been performed. To preserve the set’s originality, the fountain pen has not been disassembled, resacked, inked or writing-tested.

The original filling components are several decades old. The Snorkel mechanism is therefore being sold unserviced and untested and should not be assumed ready for regular use. A buyer wishing to use the fountain pen should expect to have the filling system serviced first.

KNOWN FLAWS

The cream presentation-case lining shows age-related spotting and discoloration. The original cardboard outer box has storage discoloration, scuffing and edge wear. These original packaging materials have intentionally been preserved rather than cosmetically altered.

The photographs show the exact pen, pencil, presentation case and outer box offered for sale and form part of the condition description.
