This is a throwback photo from 2004. This is a Sheaffer Legacy Heritage Look of Leather Formal Black fountain pen c. 2004-2006. The Look of Leather pens are virtually a special edition where Sheaffer sent Legacy Heritage blanks to a partner in Asia, first going to a small shop that does an undercoating on the cap and barrel blanks that are then sent to a specialty finish shop where the heavy leather patterned lacquer finish is applied. The painted caps and barrels were then sent back to Fort Madison, Iowa for inspection and final assembly. Four finishes, including Formal Black, Brushed Brown, Reassuring Blue and Burgundy were made. Brown and burgundy pens had gold plated trim and black and blue pens had palladium plated trim and nibs. This pen is a cartridge / converter pen, model 9040, fitted with a solid 18 karat gold palladium plated Inlaid nib that was available in fine and medium nib grades. It's 5 3/8 inches long. Retail price in 2004 was $200. #fountainpen #pencollecting #sheaffer #sheafferpen #legacy #linearmatte #sheafferlegacy #penhero https://www.instagram.com/p/B4s9OU8j8fv/?igshid=1w6tfr6zfmvu2
