1948 Persian Blue Sheaffer Triumph Sentinel Deluxe fountain pen & pencil - fine point

This is a special set. Sentinel Deluxe are tied - with the Crest Deluxe & Valiant - for the largest Triumph Sheaffer made. Persian blue is my favorite non-celluloid color of Sheaffer pen. Unfortunately Sheaffer only made Persian blue pens in the 1948 & 1949/50 model years. The cap has a one small dent on the back side but the peak is clean and smooth. The ink view grip section has darkened to nearly opaque. The cap bands of the pen and pencil are engraved J.J.H. The fine point nib writes a smooth & wet line. I have large hands and can write comfortably with the pen uncapped. If you like a larger pen the cap will post gently but securely. The pencil is in perfect working condition bit has no graphite. Fresh graphite and erasers can be purchased from legendaryleadcompany.com. The filler has been restored with modern materials that will keep this pen working for decades. The only maintenance required is an occasional dab of silicone grease on the filler rod to keep the seals lubricated.
