THIS IS A OLD SHEAFFER'S 1940 WASP CLIPPER FOUNTAIN PEN. IT  IS BROWN PEARL IN COLOR & DESIGN. THE BARREL IS MARKED: "THE CLIPPER WASP PEN CO. INC. FORT MADISON, IOWA, U.S.A. PATENTED IN U.S.A. 195". 

Over the years, many of the major pen companies also produced “off-brand” pens. Wasp, whose name is merely the initials of the name W. A. Sheaffer Pen Company, is a great example of one such secondary brand.

   THE SCREW ON CAP HAS A GOLD TONED SHIRT CLIP AND ALSO A GOLD TONED BAND NEAR THE OPENING OF CAP.  THE PLASTIC BARREL AND CAP HAVE NO BREAKS, CHIPS OR CRACKS, BUT DO SHOW SOME FINE LIGHT SCRATCHES FROM USE. THE FILL LEVER SEEMS TO BE FUNCTIONING AS IT SHOULD, BUT THE BLADDER WILL NEED REPLACED, AS WHEN YOU SHAKE PEN YOU CAN HEAR THE PIECES RATTLING INSIDE. PLEASE LOOK AT THE PICTURES AND FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS.
