AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A group of 3 mechanical pencils.
All are in working order.
The black and gold plated one has a pencil one end and a space for a nib at the other. It has a patent marked May 65. It weighs 11.4g including the removable nib and the total length when fully extended is 16cm. The plunger for the nib is missing but I manually remove and reattach the nib.
The next is silver plated with a green stone at the top. Lovely condition, working as it should. Weighing 9.2g and 12.5cm in length.
The third one is a tarnished silver plated version made in the UK with VS lead marked on the nib. Working well.
All 3 pieces are offered without reserve and sent using tracked delivery.
