$149.99So new looking, you'll think Marty McFly brought them back from the 1950s in his Delorean. New Old Stock! This Sheaffer Sovereign set comes in that great dark green from the TouchDown filler era. The only thing we restored on this pen is the ink sac and O-ring, in the off chance you'd want to write with this museum piece. Click the headline for a close-up, and you can see that the ink window is still that factory fresh yellow-green. Even the original presentation box looks pretty close to perfect. The vintage pen has a smooth 14k gold nib that writes a fine line. The pencil still works well.

$175.00In 1949, Sheaffer released the Sheaffer TouchDown filling system in its mainline pens such as this Sheaffer Sentinel. Our vintage pen is New Old Stock and in its original box! Never used, along with its original N.O.S. pencil, these writing instruments are perfect. We restored the filling system with a new O-ring and ink sac, just in case you do want to write them. The set even includes the original instruction guide. Only the first-year pens had the wider barrel, which we prefer. Sheaffer brought out the TM, or Thin Model, version the following year. The outer clamshell box shows some wear from protecting its precious cargo for more than 70 years! Click the headline for close-ups.

$149.99New Old Stock! Stickered in the original box! Check out our Sheaffer Tuckaway pen and pencil set. Untouched since the 1940s, the fountain pen and pencil are pristine. Check out the pure, factory-fresh yellow-green ink viewing window. The only thing we did to the vintage pen is install a new ink sac and O-ring, in the off chance you want to write with the fountain pen. The pencil is likewise in perfect working order. The original instructions are under the pad. The short pocket clip's outer shell feels a little loose, but the main anchor of the clip is strong. The box has some schmutz on the back and on some of the edges, but the box remains whole and in good structural condition.
