Condition Very nice condition with no cracks. The trim looks quite nice - there is scratching and some brassing, but no corrosion or pitting. The clip has brassing on the open end and around the top. The upper cap band has more brassing than the lower one. The trim around the blind cap jewel also has brassing. This is a small-sized pen in a pretty color pattern with decent shine. The coloration has darkened a tad, but still looks quite nice. The barrel clarity is excellent. The pearlization in the material is still evident in many places. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip and moderate scratching with bite marks on the blind cap. The cap has moderate wear. The top of the cap has some heavier scratching. The cap jewel has some scratching; the end barrel jewel looks very good. The imprints are clear.
