My Vintage Sheaffer's (imgur.com)

Kicking off my appreciation of this new community with my Sheaffer's collection. I absolutely love the Snorkel. It's a little bit of a pain to work on, but so cool and easy to use.

My faves here are the blue Statesman and the red vein Balance. Not pictured are any of my modern Sheaffer's, or later cartridge based student pens.

Maybe I'll post my Wearevers soon. Such cheap pens, but they had lovely celluloid.

Awesome collection! I'm waiting for my Sheaffer Imperial VIII I won on auction. I'll put up some pictures when I get it.

Thank you! Congratulations on your win, I look forward to seeing it. Man, Imperials are so cool looking. I think they're sleeker looking than the Parker 51, but I'm admittedly a Sheaffer's fan. What color did you get?

The listing says black, but I'll see when it gets here. Should be here by the end of the week. 😀
