Condition Excellent + condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a large, velvety black, and shiny fountain pen that has a classic look. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip. It has some light scratches near the end with a few areas that have tiny cross-wise scratch marks. The "7" on the end of the barrel is very clear, but it is bluish in color. The lever looks excellent. The cap has light to moderate scratches throughout with a few longer, thin lines near the top. The cap band has a bit of plating wear and brassing on the lower edge. The clip has some tiny pin prick marks and a tad of plating wear along the right side edge. The imprints are crystal clear.
