Sweet Snapfil buy in the 'bay (not mine sadly)
Permalink Closed

All I can say is this is a hell of a sweet buy. Whoever this guy is got one sweet deal. Snapfils don't pop up too often at al, & when the do they are usually usergrade at best. To find one of these in this sort of condition w/ the box & paperwork is almost unheard of.

My hat's off to you Penengr2!

This seems to be an unusual pen--can't find any reference to a "SNAPFIL" made by General Manufacturing Co , Sioux City, Iowa.  This pen is still in the original box (although the label does have some ink staining--still readable).  The instructions are still there also--the previous owner has written his name and some other things on the top of the instructions.  14kt nib appears to be in good shape with a touch of silver color at the very tip.  We have not checked to see if the bladder is OK on this pen--probably isn't, but we haven't checked.  The pen is 5 1/2" long with a beautiful embossed gold metal band.  There are no teeth marks or cracks in the case.  This is a lever filled pen and there was never a clip--so, all there!  Happy Bidding on this unique fountain pen!
