Restored Sheaffer NEAR MINT. Pastel Gray Snorkel Clipper. Fine Point Pen & Pencil. Length capped – 5 1/2. Pencil has new eraser and extra leads, propels and retracts as it should. Case – near mint. Near mint pen and pencil set restored from near mint original examples. Both pen and pencil look and operate perfectly, and the case is also near mint. An interesting feature of the pen is its color-matched section. Some Snorkel history: Snorkels were manufactured from 1952 to 1959. Black, burgundy, and pastel blue, green, and gray were the five original colors and came with black sections. They remained in the lineup throughout the entire production run. In 1956 however Sheaffer introduced 6 new colors and most of them had sections in matching colors. Very few of the original color Snorkels (from late in the production run) are found with color matched sections, and this pen is one of them. The sticker on the section is original and there is a tiny fragment of the original chalk marks visible on the barrel–please see the next-to-last photo. Also included with this set is the original Sheaffer enclosure with filling directions. I guarantee the pens I restore write smoothly and fill as designed.
