Condition Excellent condition. This is a richly colored, shiny pen that features glowing marble pieces. The cap and barrel have light to some moderate scratching. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip. The unique lever looks great. There is a crack in the cap lip that has been repaired, but the pen should not be posted to prevent the crack from opening up again. There is also some surface marks between the cap band and cap lip. The cap band has plating wear and brassing. The clip has brassing and plating wear on the ball end -- the rest of the clip looks great. The imprints are nice and clear.
