Sheaffer Triumph 444 Brushed Chrome CT SS nib, showing original squeeze converter and modern piston converter.jpeg
Mercian posted a gallery image in FPN Image Albums
From the album: Mercian’s pens
A photo of my Sheaffer Triumph 444 Brushed Chrome pen with CT & Stainless Steel nib, with the squeeze converter that came to me with the (1980s?) pen, and the (2020s?) piston converter that I bought to use in it. The listing from which I bought this pen described it as an ‘Imperial’, but I believe that Sheaffer sold it as a ‘Triumph’ (having stopped selling the ‘high-end’ ‘Imperial’ models in the period during which this, lower-priced, model was still being sold). I was initially worried that the length of the piston-turning knob on the converter might mean that it doesn’t fit inside the barrel of the pen, but I can - happily - confirm that it fits deeply-enough into the grip-section that the barrel can fully screw-on to the pen 😊 I am impressed by how securely each converter is held by the grip-section.© Mercian

Photograph of my Sheaffer piston converter inside its point-of-sale packaging. Shortly after this photograph was taken, the converter was taken out of this packaging, and put into my Triumph 444. The packaging, though, was put into the bin. Sic transit gloria mundi 😢© Mercian
