From 1952 to 1956 Sheaffer only had six solid colors available: Blue, Burgundy, Black, Grey, Brown and Green
As Sheaffer realized 6 solid colors was not a large selection, they added 9 more solid colors from 1956 to 1959
As a way to differentiate the snorkel for other fountain pens, Sheaffer introduced short, pointed phrases to highlight the Sheaffer pen filler
Recognized as the most complicated filling system in any fountain pen, it also was the most dependable and one of the most efficient pens ever made
In the 1950's Sheaffer advertised the Sheaffer pen as a thin model pen was the demand of the every day writer. As time went on, the demand for a thin model was lost. Tega Pen Company has designed the FANTASY SNORKEL(R) to be fatter and well balanced
