Product Description
Type Modern Mechanical Pencil
Product Name Cross Townsend
Manufacturer and Year Cross, USA -- the Townsend is a current model though the Pencil has been discontinued.
Length 5-3/4"
Filling System Takes leads and erasers vis the Cross cassette system, which involves dropping a combo lead-eraser refill into the barrel. A new cassette is installed in this pencil which has 0.5mm pencil leads and an eraser, and we will include a second spare cassette. When the cap is attached, the pencil works via a propelling system where you give the cap a half-twist to advance the lead, but without the cap, you can ratchet the eraser or push down on the end.
As far as we can tell, Cross no longer makes these cassettes, but you can refill them with any 0.5mm leads by simply removing the eraser and dropping in new leads.
Color Shiny chrome finish with a pattern of lines. Gold trim - finial, clip, band, and nose cone.
Condition Near Mint in box condition, there are barely any micoscratches and the surface is well polished. Ships in original box with paperwork, and additional refill cassette.
