Sheaffer Engraving Dies, set of 6

SHFDIE-6  Sheaffer Engraving Dies, set of 6. These steel engraving dies were used to print the Sheaffer name on cap bands in the 1970s - 1980s. The actual dies vary a little in size, but are all about 1 x 1.25 inches. All came from the Sheaffer factory in Fort Madison, Iowa and are just one of the odd and unusual items we purchased at the Sheaffer equipment auction in February 2007. A nice little historical trinket from the days when Sheaffers were made in Fort Madison. This set includes six different dies. (1 set avail)

Sheaffer Sales Convention Ribbons Set of 2. One each from 1950 and 1951. Small brass frame at the top pin on back has space for insertion of a name. Each measures 5.25 x 2 1/8 inches. The ribbons with gold foil imprints were both badly wrinkled and we’ve ironed out most of the wrinkles.  To where they are just a little wavy now. Hmmm…1950 and 1951, I would think the news would be how successful the recently introduced Touchdown Fountain Pens and perhaps some buzz about the soon to come Snorkel? There are many past photos in the Sheaffer Pen Museum of past Sales Conventions which were held i
