Condition Superior condition with the original clip tag on the fountain pen and with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. We acquired the set with some new old stock writing instruments, so it could very well be new odl stock, it certainly looks new. This is a velvety black, shiny pen and pencil set with great vintage appearance and appeal. The fountain pen cap and barrel have light scratching. The metal cap threads have some pitting. The pale yellow viewing window looks great. The cap band and clip have light microscratching. The mechanical pencil is near mint with just some light microscratching on the clip and cap band and light plating wear on the cone. The imprints on both pieces are clear.
