Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Restored Circa 1947 Sheaffer Oversize Triumph Sentinel DeLuxe Lifetime White Dot Lever Filler Fountain Pen in the Black Celluloid fitted with the Triumph 14K Extra-Fine nib. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned, and put back together and now is in wonderful writing condition.

I have ultrasonically cleaned the nib, feed, and section. I replaced the old latex sac with a new one. Hand polished the 2-Tone brushed stainless cap with gold plated cap band, gold-filled clip, and 14K Gold 2-Tone NIB. I also cleaned, buffed, and polished the barrel and cap to bring back the vibrancy and to protect the celluloid of the fountain pen.

This fountain pen cap and barrel are in great condition with no chips, cracks, teeth marks, or repairs with the cap always securing tightly to the barrel. The cap is stainless with gold-filled cap banding and clip. The cap has an extremely minor scratch shown in the 5th image, I have to point it out for clarity's sake. The barrel is stamped with, "W.A. SHEAFFER PEN CO. FORT MADISON, IOWA, U.S.A. MADE IN U.S.A. 1500". There are no monograms or personalizations on the cap or barrel. The "White-Dot" is placed at the end of the blind cap. This Sheaffer Oversized Sentinel DeLuxe Fountain Pen measures 5 1/4" in length capped and 6" posted. The diameter measures 1/2" at the widest area.

The Sheaffer Sentinel has the Lever Filling system, which works fantastic. In my tests with water and the new latex sac, it performs as it was originally designed to.

This Sheaffer has the gorgeous Two-toned Conical 14K NIB in a very hard-to-find Extra-Fine nib point. The actual writing portion, the iridium, of the 14K Sheaffer NIB has an extra-fine point measuring roughly .45mm when measured with digital calipers. When creating a writing sample, the NIB writes with a double extra-fine to a fine stroke/line measuring between .30mm to .51mm when measured with digital calipers. The writing sample was done with the actual pen in the images that are listed for sale. The writing sample was used by dipping the NIB in Parker Blue Ink. This is a needle-point nib and writes as one would expect, very rigid with ultra-thin lines. 

This is a great Sheaffer Triumph Sentinel DeLuxe Fountain Pen in the Black Celluloid that would grade in Excellent to Near Mint Condition. This model was intended as a high-line model, initially offered black, green, and gray striped celluloid barrels. I have found that most of the Sentinel Deluxe fountain pens are Plunger Fillers so having a lever filler is a real treat. 1947, is the first year this model was made and the only year without stripes on the cap, which this cap comes without stripes.
