Condition Superior condition, in box. This is a beautiful, shiny set in a classic color combination. The fountain pen has marks caused by the cap lip. The clip looks excellent. The sac is clear so we don't think it has been inked. The mechanical pencil is like new with some light scratching where the barrel meets the cap. The mottled brown cardboard box has a little wear on the corners. Otherwise, it is an excellent vintage box. The imprints on both pieces are clear.
