I bought it rather impulsively a few weeks ago at the Philly Pen Show 2007. It writes like a dream, but I'm more used to using XF nibs. I have a self-imposed ten-pen limit, so this one has to go, despite how lovely it is. I hate to let it go.
It is ready to write! I had it undergo restoration right then and there at the Pen Show by our own expert RonZ of the Repair Forum
He did the dissection, ultrasonic cleaning, buffing, and installed a new sac--he explained that he chose a silicone sac for long life and to prevent any discoloration of the celluloid. So it's good to go.It is a user-grade pen. There is a small chip on the bottom (you can sort of see it in the photo) and the cap ring is brassed. Other than that, there are a few incidental bumps and things that come with age.
I paid $40 for the pen, plus $30 for the RonZ treatment. Asking $60, shipped in the US. I can accept NON-credit card Paypal payments, checks, postal money orders.
Thanks for looking.
