PEN RESURRECTION SUNDAY Episode #5  - 1920s Sheaffer Black Hard Rubber Fountain Pen
Channel: Inkquiring Minds
Date: 09/10/2022

Welcome to PEN RESURRECTION SUNDAY Episode #5! Today's vintage resurrection is a 1920s Sheaffer BHR or black hard rubber fountain pen. I show how I restored the pen from an old, crusty, non-working pen to a polished working beauty. I also talk about the parts and features of the pen, provide some size comparisons and measurements, and then do a writing sample.
