Filling System Snorkel filler. We've fully restored the system with a new sac, point gasket, and O-ring. It's working perfectly, and we'll include instructions on how to use it. The pencil takes 0.9mm (or "thin") leads, which it extends via the traditional twist mechanism, which is working well. We'll include a small pack of leads.
Color Pastel blue with gold plated trim, 1/4" cap band.
Nib FINE 14k nib. It is in great condition.
Condition Superior condition, in box, with paperwork. No cracks, chips, dents, or dings on either the pen or pencil. The imprints on both are clear. The fountain pen has light wear toward the end of the barrel (caused by posting) and a few very small marks on the cap. The slim, dainty pencil is perfect. It still has the price chalkmark of $6.00 on the barrel. The clamsheel "snorkel" box has a piece of the overlay material missing on the top and a little scratch mark on the left top side.
