Hi,

Last month I posted a rather monstrous hoard of Sheaffer Balance pens (Sheaffer: Fort Madison, iA product) that turned up in all places Janesville, WI (home of Parker Pens). including some off catalogue rarities and grand pens in general that thread can be seen here:

Sheaffer Monster Hoard #1 found in Janesville


At our first-ever Janesville Pen Club meeting, more Sheaffers turned up. Some nice ones. What could I do????

I bought 'em :)

Superb Jade, off-catalogue cap-bands, some better variants relative to their size, this is a nice bunch.

I'll probably post how Davey ended up half each month in Parker's home town (whadda coincidence!) shortly.

Thoughts?

Neither can I...then again, I know near-nothing about vintage Sheaffers.
