SH1889 Sheaffer Fashion II Model 263 Pencil.
SH1889 Sheaffer Fashion II Model 263 Pencil.
Date: c1980s
Size: Length - 135mm.
A very good sized matte burgundy lacquered pencil in very good condition. There are two single pinprick sized losses in the lacquer around the back of the cap, and I have photographed them below. This is the only damage that I was able to find on this pencil and they are by no means obvious. The cap has a gold plated top button with a long, narrow gold plated spring-loaded pocket clip with the Sheaffer white dot at the top. Around the back of the cap is the original black sales label that gives the type and model of the pencil. The cap pulls off for access to the spare lead holder. This is a "click" type pencil - you press on the top button to "click" out the 0.5mm lead a notch. Hold the button depressed and push the lead back in to retract.
I have fully serviced this pencil. It works perfectly.
