Swan pen id

Hi folks.

Just come into possession of this Swan lever pen and need to know if the colour change on the pen is aging or meant to be.Thanks.

Celluloid is starting to rot.  It is not meant to look like that.

Thanks Greenie.

Probably not what I wanted to hear can any thing be done to halt that process.

Not that anyone is aware of.....   All you can do is enjoy it while it lasts.  Keep it away from other celluloid pens. It is thought that the gasses being emitted can damage other celluloid pens in the vicinity.
