Pilot Elite Checkered Pocket Pen 18K Gold, Fine nib

Pocket pens are designed with portability in mind. While capped, a pocket pen will measure less than 125mm from end-to-end. However, when posted, it becomes a full sized fountain pen. Pocket pens were popular in the 60's & 70's but recently have been making a comeback. Being easy to slip in a pocket or purse make pocket pens ideal for travel and those who are always on the go. - Manufacturer/Model: Pilot Elite - Year of Manufacture: February, 1977- Color: Silver and Black- Material: Resin- Nib: 18K Gold, Fine - Filling System: Cartridge/ Converter- Condition Rank: (C) Good; Clip is slightly bent- Country of Manufacture: Japan   Condition Rank Guide:-N: Item is in New Old Stock condition (NOS).
