Picked this up at the NJ Pen Show about two years ago.

Loaded it today prepping a shoot for an article.

Rather like it. Pens not shabby either ;)

5K$ is a fair price considering the included cat. Too bad it's pick up only.

I'll leave price alone, though certainly were I not something of an itinerant doc (I split time working in Syracuse, having a life in Manhattan, both domiciles small and subject to eventual change), i would adore having that item in my pen room. My guess is mid-late 1940's for manufacture, though I keep open mind. Truly spectacular.

What would one's spouse say, if one brought that home! There was a very similar two-tower Sheaffer case in the Greensburg, KS, Rexal...before the tornado. From Sam at Pendemonium:

actually, they do say they'll deliver to you for free if you live within 200 miles of rockford, illinois. what's interesting too is probably why the owners kept it all these years--they're mike and nancy PARKER ;)
