Condition Excellent condition, in box and with original booklet. The pewter has developed some natural patina, which can be cleaned off with a solution of mild dish soap and water. Some people may prefer the patina, so we've left it in this condition; if you'd like us to clean it up before shipping, please send us a message to that effect. The clip has some brassing on the edges, and the pen's barrel and cap have small marks and scratches from use. The plaque on the top of the box is engraved with "H C Harris", and the booklet has "1-1-1976 Herbert C Harris" written on the inside front page. This is a great piece for a Parker collector, or for a Colonial-era history buff! It's got the key, but it's missing the felt-covered cardboard (?) platform with the pen loop.
