SH1875 Sheaffer Imperial Triumph Ballpoint and Pencil Set, boxed.

SH1875 Sheaffer Imperial Triumph Ballpoint and Pencil Set, boxed.

Date: c1970

Size: Length - 129mm.

This lovely ballpoint and pencil set is in excellent condition with no plating wear at all, and just the usual micro-scratches that such items would pick up with any kind of use.  Both pieces are finished in gold fill with the straight-line decoration in panels around the barrel and cap.  The caps have the wide and squared-off gold plated pocket clips with the Sheaffer white dot at the top. 

Ballpoint

The cap unscrews to allow the refill to be replaced.  It is still fitted with its original Sheaffer ballpoint refill, which is working very well.  The refill is extended and retracted by pressing the bottom and top of the "reminder" pocket clip respectively.

Pencil

This is an extend/retract pencil - you twist the cap to do this.  The cap also pulls off to reveal an apparently unused white eraser with a few spare 0.9mm leads below.  I have fitted a fresh lead into the mechanism and it is working perfectly.  

Box

The original navy blue coloured presentation box is also in very nice condition. This is a quality hard shell case with lovely deep blue satin lid lining and pad.

I have fully serviced this set.  Both pen and pencil work perfectly and are in beautiful and near perfect condition.
