Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, or serious dings. This is a lovely, shiny mechanical pencil with an especially elegant cap. The barrel and cone have light to moderate scratching. The cap has light scratching, and some small dings; otherwise it's very shiny and pretty. The cap is personalized with the initials "B.L.F." on the lip. The clip has plating wear along the edges, particularly the top edge of the arrow end. The pearlized cap jewel has some marks in the surface, but the color is good and there's no mottling. The imprints are clear.
