SHEAFFER
IMPERIAL AS9 TOUCHDOWN FOUNTAIN PEN

IN SAGE GREEN BARREL AND CAP WITH GOLD PLATED FITTINGS AND NO WHITE DOT, WIDE CAP BAND

CANADA C1960, THE BARREL IS MARKED USA, SO IT LOOKS LIKE THE BARRELS AND CAPS CAME FROM USA TO CANADA, THIS WAS QUITE COMMON

THIS IS THE FIRST SHEAFFER PEN TO USE THE 'IMPERIAL' NAME, IT WAS ONLY MADE IN FOUR COLOURS, BLACK, BURGUNDY, BLUE AND SAGE GREEN, IT IS SIMILAR TO THE SHEAFFER SLIM MODEL, IT UTILISES THE SHORT TRIUMPH NIB, IT WAS FIRST MARKETED IN 1959 AND DISAPPEARED IN FAVOR OF THE PFM STYLE MODELS IN 1961, SO FEW WERE MADE, QUITE A RARE EXAMPLE
