Sheaffer Pens and fine Writing Instruments, invented in 1907 by Walter A. Sheaffer in Fort Madison Iowa. This was the invention of the first lever filling fountain pen. The fountain pens of the day were cumbersome and messy to refill, requiring an eyedropper and a steady hand. Sheaffer's dissatisfaction with this inconvenience led him to seek a refilling method that would be simple and clean. This resulted in a U.S. patent in August of 1908. A single stroke of a slim metal lever filled the pen reservoir directly from the ink bottle. In the 1990's local reception was so enthusiastic that Sheaffer decided to risk his life savings to establish the W.A. Sheaffer Pen Company in 1912. First the Legacy pen collection was introduced, then came the Balance pen collection which used modern design technology followed by continuous new designs and materials. REFILLS AVAILABLE |
