Condition Excellent + condition. The set looks shiny and pretty, resting in the original Eversharp Skyline two-tone brown leather box, with paperwork and a pop-up advertising tag attached to the left front corner of the box. The fountain pen barrel, cap, and lever have some scratch marks, mostly light, but there are a few long thin lines of scratching and the barrel has some horizontal scratch marks where the cap fits over it. The pen cap has two very shallow and hard to see dents. The mechanical pencil is in superior condition with a near perfect cap and a barrel with some light scratching and that includes the original price band. The pencil mechanism is a bit hard to depress but it works. Imprints are clear. No cracks, dents, dings, or serious scratch marks. Imprints are clear.
