BU159 Burnham Pencil
Date: c1950s
Size: Length - 117mm.
This is a very beautiful Burnham pencil in a most unusual colourway of black, brown and white. It is in excellent condition with no damage at all that I can see. There no noticeable surface scratches or other damage, and the pencil has a good glossy appearance. Very unusually, the gold plated trim all appears to be in great condition too. The cap has a black top button that holds on the Burnham imprinted pocket clip. There is a narrow gold plated band mid-barrel. The point, too, is gold plated. This is a propel-repel pencil that works by twisting the cone. I have fitted a fresh 1.18mm pencil lead into the mechanism so it is all ready to go.
I have fully serviced this pencil. It works perfectly. The first example of a Nurnham in this particular colour I have come across so far.
