Condition Very nice condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a full-sized pen that is shiny and a velvety black color in a nice vintage design. The cap and barrel have moderate scratching. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip. The striped viewing window has excellent clarity. Just above the blind cap, there is a model and nib size marking (294, EF) and, as well, there is an imprint "RWA". The cap has very heavy scratching on the piece just below the clip ring. The cap bands have brassing but they look excellent. The clip and clip ring have brassing and plating wear. The top black jewel is excellent. All imprints are clear.
