Description
This gray pearl circuit board WASP Clipper is in very good restored condition. The chrome plating on the clip, lever and cap band is very good to excellent. No plating loss. The end caps are poor, as they so often are on WASP Clippers. Please see the photos. The nib is a smooth-writing, semi-flex fine point of 12k gold (all WASP nibs are 12k). The imprint is strong.
WASP pens were made by Sheaffer during the late 30s and early 40s as a way of competing with the lower priced fountain pens in the marketplace. The name WASP is an acronym for William A. Sheaffer Pen. WASP quickly became favored pens among the young, not just because of their affordability but also because of their attractive patterns, like "circuit board" and "birdseye."
All restorations include
disassembly, cleaning,
replacement of the sac,
smoothing and adjusting the nib,
refinishing the plastic and chrome plated surfaces,
filling the pen with ink (not just dipping)
and producing multiple writing samples over 2 days (like the one in the photo).
I guarantee the pens I restore write smoothly and fill as designed.
Payment is expected within 3 days.
Free USPS First Class shipping in cardboard box. Shipping to US addresses only.
All shipping materials are biodegradable.
NOTE:
I'm sorry but I ship only to residents of the US.
