This sheaffer pen is in good order.  It has a new sac,  it has been ultrasonicly cleaned.  It had an imprint which was removed,  there remains dlight evidence of the removsl process.  The sample writing is from this pen.  Notably the nib can write ultra-fine whe used upside-down.   The pen has a thinner line on the downstroke than on the horizontal stroke, that combined with the spring-y-ness of the nib gives this pen a bit more personality than many sheaffers with more of a ball type nib. 

The parker 51 in  the pictures is there only for scale.  It is NOT part of the sale.
