Three vintage pens on the display:
1. Sheaffer Snorkel "Valiant" in Burgundy
Nib: Sheaffer 14K. I dip test it and find an excellent and smooth M (this is the star of the pen)
Note: This pen is begging to be restored. After cleaning, the snorkel extends and retract just fine, but when I test it with water, it does not hold water. There is a crack on the cap and a dull circle near the Sheaffer engraving on the barrel.
Price: $45 OBO
2. Esterbrook J in Copper color
Nib: 9314-F Relief Stub. A firm F nib. Excellent for sketching or writing where consistent lines are desirable.
Note: Sac replaced and I test it for days. Will ship it to you with Diamine Ancient Copper in the pen, or I can flush it, just tell me which you prefer.

3. A Rare Morrison's Gold Ringtop (14k gold rolled body and 14k Nib)
Nib: Warranted 14K
Note: On the body of the pen, there is a 14K engraving, which means the body was rolled or plated with some gold, but there are brassing now, still very neat, but don't expect jewelry store perfection. I replaced the sac, straighten the tines on the nib, it writes well with a semi-flex M nib. This pen looks small, but when posted, it's almost the same size as a Kaweco Sport.

Shipping is $3 within US regardless how many pens you get.
I prefer US buyers. International offers are welcome for more than one pens.
