Enduro(?)

Mottled black and white pen, old "Flattop" style.


I know next to nothing about this pen, other than it can't have been too dear.  It's sturdy as all get out, as it came to me via my father-in-law's childhood toy-box.  It's withstood the test of children.
 It's a very pretty pen, too.

Specifications:  Medium plated steel point, nibs formed from body of point.  Lever filler.  12.8cm long capped,  15.8cm posted.

Condition:  Astonishing, given where it was living.  There are some very small chips from the top of the cap and base of the barrel, but not scratches otherwise.  The point once had some kind of coating meant to pretend it was gold plating, but it's a mere vestige at the face of the section.  I've no idea what kind of material the metal fitting are, but they seem to be the same bright-brass colour they started life as (not brassed, as such).

Repairs:  Took kinks out of point-- it's still not perfect, but I don't want to work-brittle it into a nibless state.  New silicon sac installed.

Location:  My collection.

For sale?:  Valentine's gift from my wife, given when I first showed signs of pen-madness.  You'd have to offer me an awful lot.
