Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a velvety black, shiny pen that has classic 1950s styling. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip. There are a few random marks here and there. The cap fits a little tightly, but it does screw on and accesses the threads. The cap has light to moderate microscratching and there are some tiny scratches at the top of the cap where the clip arches over the top. The cap band has brassing, microscratching and some miniscule dot marks. The clip is slightly loose and has a small amount of side to side play; you will want to be careful with the clip and not flex it out too far from the cap surface as cracks may develop at the top where it attaches. The clip has microscratching near the end. The imprints are clear.
