Product Description
Type Fountain pen and mechanical pencil set in original box.
Product Name Slim Ventura
Manufacturer and Year Eversharp, 1953-7
Length Both pen and pencil are 5-3/16"
Filling System The pen has an aerometric-like squeeze filling system called the "Diamatic Filling Unit." The pencil takes 1.1mm (or "thick") leads, which it extends via the reapeater, or cap-actuated mechanism, where you click the cap down to extend the lead, like modern mechanical pencils. We'll include a small packet of leads.
Color 1/10 14k gold filled finish with a pattern of four lines and then a space, with one panel blank for engraving.
Nib FINE 14k nib is rather firm and smooth, in great condition.
Condition Excellent near mint condition. There's just a very small spot of brassing on the top corner of the pen's cap, and on the corner of the end of its barrel. Minor wear on the cone of the pencil. No personalization, scratches, or cracks to be found on either the pen or the pencil. They're looking absolutely gorgeous, working perfectly, and they look great in their original box, and sleeves, with the orignial instructions booklet.
