Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Gorgeous Restored Circa 1937 Sheaffer WASP Lever Filler Fountain Pen in the Wave Burgundy & Black Marbled Celluloid. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned, and put back together and now is in wonderful writing condition.

I have replaced the old sac with a new sac. Polished the Gold Filled Clip, Cap Banding, and 14K Gold #3 WASP NIB. I also cleaned, buffed, and polished the barrel and cap to bring back the vibrancy and protect the celluloid of the fountain pen. The burgundy wave and marble marbled coloring are "fiery" and display such gorgeous coloring - this is really a superb example.

This fountain pen cap and barrel are in superb condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs with the cap always securing tightly to the barrel. The cap has a Gold Filled Clip and Cap Banding all of which are clean and bright with no wear. The barrel is clearly and crisply stamped with, "WASP PEN CO INC. FORT MADISON, IOWA, U.S.A.". There are no monograms or personalizations on the cap or barrel. This Sheaffer WASP Fountain Pen measures 5" in length capped and 6" posted. I have to point out that the celluloid is exceptionally clean with great coloring.

This Sheaffer WASP Lever Filling System has been restored. I have replaced the old sac with a new one. I have tested the lever-filling mechanism with water and fills as it should.

This Sheaffer WASP has a #3 14K NIB which writes smoothly. The actual writing portion, the iridium, of the 14K Sheaffer WASP NIB has a fine point measuring roughly .45mm when measured with digital calipers. When creating a writing sample, the NIB writes with a fine stroke measuring at .57mm and will flex up to .94mm stroke with firm pressure 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 Montblanc Blue Ink.

This Sheaffer WASP Fountain Pen is in magnificent condition and would grade it from Very Fine to Excellent Condition. Certainly, the color really pops on this pen and the nib writes very smoothly. This is collector-worthy and a super addition to one's writing arsenal collection.
