Condition Very nice condition. This is a short, stocky, jade green pen that is shiny and a classic. There is a crack in the cap lip, visible in the first photo, which extends to the 2nd cap band. The pen color has faded a bit over the years, but it is relatively uniform. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip and light scratching toward the end. The cap has moderate scratching. The cap bands have plating wear, as does the clip. The lever is also quite nice. The white dot on the flat top of the cap looks great. The imprints are worn, but legible.
