This is a limited edition pen from the Sheaffer "Legacy Heritage" range of models, which are made to resemble the Imperial and PFM models of the 1950s and '60s.  This "Roaring Twenties" model is a really stunning pen made from solid sterling silver and deeply engraved with images from the 1920s, depicting the history of the Sheaffer company as well as more general scenes from that period.  The images are arranged in the form of a mural, beginning on the cap and continuing on the barrel and are described in detail in an accompanying book.  Very briefly, the images are:

• Walter A Sheaffer, founder of the Sheaffer company

• 1920s immigrants from Europe looking at the Statue of Liberty

• An "airplane", recalling Charles Lindbergh's epic transatlantic flight of 1927

• A filmstrip, indicating the start of the "Golden Age" of cinema

• The Sheaffer building in Fort Madison, Iowa:

• The word "JAZZ" - the Roaring Twenties also being known as the "Jazz Age"

• A "flapper" dressed in the typical style of the (well to do) '20s

• A baseball player - the '20s being a period when sports enjoyed a great surge in popularity

• The Chrysler building, an icon of Art Deco architecture

• Finally a stock "ticker" - an image of the stock market crash of 1929 which brought this decade to a close.

The cap and barrel also bear the silver hallmarks and the purity (925) as well as the Sheaffer name, deeply engraved on the barrel:

As mentioned above, this is a limited edition pen, from a series of 1108 and a Certificate of Authenticity, signed by the General Manager of Sheaffers is included:

This is a handsome pen and comes with a presentation box to match:

Also included is a bottle of ink, some ink cartridges and a fascinating book about the 1920s, Sheaffer's history and the images on the pen:

This pen would make a very special gift on a special occasion and would be a wonderful object to own.
