Pilot Elite Silver & White Pocket Fountain Pen 18K Gold Script Nib

Sailor introduced the first pocket pen in 1963 with the launch of the Sailor Mini. Platinum followed later the same year with its Poket PK-2000 (18k nib) and PK-1000 (14k nib). Pilot was the last of the big three to join the trend. Pilot introduced the Elite S in 1964. The "S" was meant to distinguished the new short pens from the full size Pilot Elite.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: Unknown, 1970's- Color: Silver, White, Gold- Material: Metal, Resin- Nib: 18K Gold Script Nib- Filling System: Cartridge/Converter (not included)- Condition Rank: B, Very Good Condition.
