Condition Excellent + condition, really very close to mint. No cracks or chips. No brassing. The color is dark. The imprints are crisp.
The painted carboard box is in really nice condition, just a little worn around the edges. It has slits in the inside layer of the base so that it can be used as a display stand for the pen set
This pen writes very smoothly with a good amount of flex. The filling system is working well, and we'll guarantee it for a year.
