I saw a review in korean community and saw a really beautiful imperial. White colored cap, barrel. Inlaid nib. Is there anyone who has information about it?

What springs to mind is a late Triumph Imperial 2445-- did it have a brushed metal finish on the cap?

 

There's also the Triumph Imperial Ivory White C.T. 2334, all white, cap and barrel. The section is black though.

I remember it's not a brushed metal finished and the grib part was black so i think it could be the 2334. Thanks guys.

I just purchased a NOS set of white rollerball plus fountain but haven't opened the package yet. If there is anything surprising I'll report.

I bought them from a pen dealer. This is the only set I've seen and it was the only one he offered. It is all plastic similar to the 330 but with slightly squared barrel end. I wish I knew of others. I'd be glad to share whereabouts and then possibly purchase another set myself!

Hey! Couple years late to the party but I managed to snag a set of these, Triumph Imperial Ivory White with chrome trim, 2334, made in 1998. I haven't filled the rollerball yet but the fountain pen has Pilot Iroshizuku Momiji in it, just in time for the season. I'm considering these the "doctor pens" (or nurse pens) Sheaffer never made...

Nice set. Until now I had never seen Sheaffers in white plastic. I have I think a TRZ in white but that I think is a lacquer over metal body.

 

 

 

Actually I bought the pen to harvest the slim squeeze converter for my slim Targa. But the pen turned out to be NOS/totally unused.

Thanks! Yeah, gotta love a buy for one reason but then ending up with a totally gorgeous pen. That TRZ is awesome.

 

It is funny - I don't know of any other Sheaffer white plastic models. Like I said, the "doctor pen" Sheaffer never made -- lots of other companies marketed pens in white to doctors and nurses (my favorite are the Esterbrooks) but not Sheaffer.

I just bought this pen at the Melbourne Pen Show: a white Touchdown Tip-Dip Cadet 23 (Australian) - made of white plastic, probably in the early-1960s.

That's awesome!!! I have never seen a TD or Snorkel in white.

I wonder if that might have been marketed to nurses or doctors...

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
