Pen-Fi (FPs, RBs, BPs, etc...) [56k Warning] - Page 98

Just ordered this from Peyton Street Pens!

233

I have wanted one for years. My teacher had one and I was having difficulties writing with ball points so he lent me his fountain pen. My handwriting improved almost immediately so I ended up being given a Parker to use (this one was an expensive pen at the time, far too good for a seven year old!).

This is NOS and from Peytons seconds, the only mark on it is a slight cap mark on the section though, other wise the 12k gold fill is in as new condition, even has the original sticker in place. I went for the medium 14k nib as the vintage Sheaffers ran a little smaller in their nib sizes so this one will write like a fine. Comes with the squeeze filler as well so no need for cartridges which I can't abide!

Oh yes, it's a Sheaffer Imperial 777!

I also use and like the Koh I noor lead holder. Rotring makes a nice one as well in the 600 and 800 series. This is for the 2mm leads...

There are others for the 5.6mm leads - but I don't use those much. The David Hayward Scribbler 3 comes to mind.

The 5.6mm David Hayward looks like it might be the perfect option, thanks!

My new sheaffer arrived today. Brand new but made in the 1970's! Also, Terri from Peyton street pens included as a gift a Hero 616 fountain pen which writes really well as well.

I love the Sheaffer! Such a perfect pen for me.
Here are so quick pictures!
