Description
Sheaffer Snorkel Admiral (6) and Special (1) fountain pens. The Sheaffer Snorkel was a unique design where a tube extended from behind the nib that would allow the user to fill the pen without having to immerse the nib in ink during filling. These pens were a great success for Sheaffer and were part of their line until cartridge/converter pens dominated the fountain pen market. The Snorkel was made in several different models, the Admirals have 14k nibs while the Specials have palladium nibs. These were made in several different colours, this lot is composed of 7 of the 8 colours for this model; Aqua (Pastel Blue), Pastel Green, Sage Green, Black, Buckskin Tan, Grey and Burgundy. Overall fair to excellent, some with barrel wear present, Aqua pen with cap crack, Pastel Green and Grey pens with hairlines at clip area.
