what about the Vanishing Point/Capless

[KCat]

I wanna know what their history is. Albeit fairly short by comparison to the brand as a whole. Andreas Lambrou doesn't go into detail on the pen except to say that it was first produce in 1964 with underwhelming response. Then came back in the 70s. it certainly seems to be a very popular pen. This is the first pen (other than my precious birds) I can see myself actually accumulating in different finishes. Raden, black carbonesque, solid blue with rhodium accents...

 

anyone know more about the design changes along the way? did it bite in the first round?

Japanese Pilot Capless package

 

Sounds like Japanese Capless package has a history/timetable of the pen. Does yours have that? Well, I just found the bigger photo, and it's just a general history of pen, I guess.

 

I can do more search in Japanese later this week and let you know. I also have two Japanese pen books on order. When they arrive I will look for info on Capless
