Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this very scarce restored circa 1929 Sheaffer Senior Flat Top White Dot Autograph 14K Trim Fountain Pen in the Jade Celluloid. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned, put back together, and is now in wonderful writing condition.

The Sheaffer Flat Top Autograph Fountain Pen is an Oversize Model with a 1/2" wide 14K Cap Banding which was the widest available and the 14K clip. These Flat Top Autographs are difficult to acquire and they are downright scarce when they come in Jade, especially in this type of condition. 

I have ultrasonically cleaned the NIB, feed, and section. Replaced the old ink sac with a new silicone sac to help preserve the color of the Jade. I hand-polished the 14K gold clip, 14K cap banding, and 14K nib. I cleaned, buffed, and polished the barrel and cap to bring back the vibrancy and protect the celluloid of the fountain pen.

This fountain pen cap and barrel are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs with the cap always securing tightly to the barrel. The cap has a 14K gold clip that is in perfect condition. The 14K gold 1/2" inch wide cap banding has been polished to shine brightly once again. The 14K cap banding is in overall very good condition, however, there are two pinhead dings in the banding (see image 9). The top of the cap is flat and displays the white dot in the center. The barrel is clearly and crisply stamped with, "W.A. SHEAFFER PEN CO FORT MADISON IA U.S.A. PATENTED IN U.S.A.". The celluloid is in excellent condition displaying a brilliant green Jade color with no dark spots - very even coloring throughout the cap and barrel. This Sheaffer Senior Fountain Pen measures 5 3/8" in length capped and 6 3/4" posted.

This Sheaffer Oversize Flattop has the Lever Filling system, which works fantastic. The filling system works as it was intended to back when it was manufactured.

This Sheaffer has a 14K Lifetime Nib that writes very smoothly. The actual iridium tip on this Sheaffer Nib has a medium point measuring roughly .85mm when measured with digital calipers. When writing a sample with this NIB, it writes with a medium stroke/line. In the writing sample provided, the medium line measures between .61mm with very light pressure to a medium stroke measuring .82mm with medium to firm pressure when I 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 performed by dipping the Nib in Parker Quink Blue Ink.

This is an extremely uncommon vintage Senior Sheaffer Flat Top Fountain Pen with 14K Autograph Trim that would grade in excellent to excellent+ condition. It is ready to write with or just add to your writing arsenal collection.
