Condition Excellent condition. There is light scratching on the cap. The clip has quite a lot of brassing, as does the cap band. The barrel has more moderate scratching. The barrel imprint is very clear and easily readable. It says: "Capitol Cabinet" Aikin Lambert Co. New York Made in U.S.A. The lever bar has brassing and plating wear. The color is strong and even, and consistent between cap and barrel. It's quite a beautiful piece, restored and working well.
