Product Description
Type Vintage Mechanical Pencil
Product Name Unknown
Manufacturer and Year John Holland USA-- Probably the 1930's or 40's
Length 5-3/8"
Filling System Uses 1.1mm (aka "Thick") lead, and extends lead in the traditional twist-method. Twist the pencil barrel while holding the barrel end piece.
Color Orange barrel with 1/40 14k gold filled trim. Ball ended clip.
Condition Very Nice condition. There's a good amount of brassing on most of the gold plating - barrel end piece, clip, and nose cone. There is a mark in the barrel material, which we've detailed in the photos below; the picture shows how the light bends where the mark is present. Eraser is still present underneath the barrel end piece. The John Holland imprint is clear and sharp. It works great.
