 I know it is not a fountain pen but it is SUPER COOL! This is Sheaffer's first ballpoint pen, I have added a do-for to allow this pen to use modern Sheaffer refills. Also included is the hard to find tip protector. If you must use a ballpoint you may as well use a cool one. This is in excellent condition with no cracks or dents.
