Condition Very nice condition with no barrel cracks, chips or dents. This is an over-sized, beautifully colored pen, in a classic design. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip as well as light to moderate scratching. The lever has plating wear and some deeper marks. The cap has light scratching with one little dip to the left of the top of the cap. The cap band has moderate scratching, including a long scratch mid-band, and plating wear. Two hairline cracks on the cap lip, so the pen should not be posted. The clip has random scratching and plating wear along the edges. The white dot has yellowed. The imprint is clear.
