Continuing to refocus my collecting, it is time to move out a few nice snorkels in the rarer/less common colors. From Left to Right:

First up is a beautiful Sheaffer Admiral fountain pen and matching pencil in Vermillion. Both are in outstanding condition. There is a clear chalkmark on the fountain pen which reads “Admiral Fine”. I wasn’t able to capture it very well in the photo. Sheaffer engraving on the pen and pencil are also very clear. The pen is equipped with a 14K F nib, and is marked F2 on the nib itself. The nib has a little spring to it, but of course is not a flexible nib. Pencil works perfectly, as does the snorkel fill mechanism, which has been restored. No brassing on the pen or pencil. Just an overall beautiful set in a hard to find color. $425. Reduced to $350 Fully insured priority shipping in CONUS, $11.

Sheaffer Clipper in Fiesta Red. SOLD Another great example in a hard to find color, this is in excellent condition. Clear Sheaffer inscription on barrel, no brassing, restored filling system works great. It is equipped with a medium triumph PdAg nib, clearly marked M4. A wonderful pen in a great color. $265, Reduced to $245 plus $7 priority shipping in CONUS.

Sheaffer Statesman in Peacock. SOLD Another hard to find color, and one of my favorite colors of all the snorkel colors. I didn’t capture the color very well…it looks like regular blue in the photo, but it is Peacock. Clear Sheaffer inscription on the barrel, no brassing, restored filling system that works great, and a medium triumph PdAg nib, again clearly marked M4. There are two small marks on the cap near the clip, but I was not able to capture with photos. $195 Reduced to $180 plus $6 priority shipping in CONUS.

Sheaffer Admiral in Sage. Although not as rare/hard to find as the preceding colors, Sage snorkels are not particularly common. Clear Sheaffer inscription on barrel. This is a wonderful example fitted with the proper 14K fine nib, and clearly marked F2. Restored filling system works great, an outstanding pen. $160, Reduced to $144 plus $6 priority shipping in CONUS.

Sheaffer Statesman in Sage. Another excellent snorkel in Sage. Clear Sheaffer inscription on barrel. There is also a personalized name on the barrel. Fitted with the proper PdAG nib in medium, and marked M4. Restored filling system works great, an outstanding pen. $145, Reduced to $130 plus $6 priority shipping in CONUS. However, if your name happens to be Ann Bremer, contact me for a great discount.
