In Topic: Sheaffer Balance meets the Black Pen Society.

On a serious note - these wide band black balances are off catalogue or probably Canadian? Or UK make ?


Plus I'm sure they must be having wild nibs also ?

On another note, what do I need to do to join the black pen society ?

In Topic: Sheaffer Balance Nib Evolution (?). Unusual nib finding.

09 June 2014 - 04:18 AM

I came across this post right now and I've seen a similar sheaffer but in black color with the same type of nib at my pen dealer in New Delhi. Since my knowledge of sheaffer balance pens ain't upto the Level, so I never considered it carefully...

Now I'm wondering was that pen a prototype or an early run model if this one is ? Any ideas ?

In Topic: Which 51 filling system do you prefer ?

09 June 2014 - 04:11 AM

The lack of a blind cap on the aerometric makes it look more modern and elegant to me, as does the simpler arrow clip. I also prefer the more reliable filling system. The vacumatic fill version of the P51 carries over too many of the attributes of the Vacumatic to make it seem as iconic as the design of the aerometric version.


Yup that's the case
