Off-catalogue 1930s Sheaffer Balance fountain pens. 2nd Seminar from the Raleigh Pen Show June 2016. David Isaacson and Pat Mohan. This is a one hour hi-def vid, so set it to lower quality if you have data cap.
This is based on my 2012 magazine article on obscure variants of Sheaffers game-changing fountain pen. This is a simple recording of the chat, so no pics of pens and no editing involved. There are a couple verbal slips ;) I'd originally planned this as monologue with questions before finding out Pat could join the chat, but we were very lucky to have him join in to lend expert commentary. Pat and I likely have the world's two heftiest selections of these pens in collection, so this was a nice opportunity for show attendees. We had 25 or so in attendance. I also learned I need to comb my cowlick before giving speeches. If you have a free hour, do enjoy. Happy to answer questions.
