Condition

The pen body is fairly smooth and largely free from scratches and marks, just typical hand and desk wear. The imprint is readable. The clip and band show very minor wear but no brassing. The jewels are striped and in excellent condition. We restored the pen and replaced the diaphragm. We'll guarantee it for the period of a year. This is a great pen which should be a dependable writer for years and years to come. |
