Condition Very nice condition for this slim, vintage pen, with great dark, consistent color, and with strong chasing. The cap has a large chip with a long crack running through it. Other than that significant flaw, the cap looks good, and the crack does not extend under the band and reach the lip of the cap. The barrel has moderate scratching. The wide cap band has moderate microscratching. All imprints are clear and the 18k mark on the cap band is excellent.
