A0000006520 Article: SHEAFFER SNAIL SNORKEL FOUNTAIN PEN, body and cap in glossy black resin in a cigarette silhouette, clip and wide cap band gold-plated, White Dot on the cap end and conical section of fine rings characteristic of the Snorkel system Length: 14.2 cm Diameter: 1.1 cm Nib: M Period: 1950s (Snorkel series, 1952-1959) Materials: Polished black resin; clip and cap band gold-filled; open nib in silver color, without carat marks, stamped “SHEAFFER'S · U.S. PAT. OFF. · MADE IN U.S.A.”; ebonite feed; barrel engraved “MADE IN U.S.A.”. Snorkel pneumatic filling system, with a retractable tube that exits below the nib. Condition: Good condition. The resin retains a bright shine and there are no cracks, bites, or deformations; the profile is intact. In the gold-plated hardware there are micro-scratches from use, especially on the cap band and the spine of the clip, with the plating intact and no metal wear. The nib is clean, with the tines aligned and the tip undistorted. Since this is a piece from the 1950s, the filling mechanism has not been operated: the sac and internal o-rings are consumables of the era and require servicing by a professional; it is sold as-is. Accessories: Only the loose piece; no box or papers visible in the photos. The photographs are part of the description.
