CS1104 Conway Stewart No. 25 Pencil, boxed.

Date: c1950s

Size: Length: 110mm.

A very nice little No. 25 pencil.  It is a very pretty multicoloured example in burgundy marbled casein with black veining.  These pencils were sold on their own or paired with the No. 550 Dinkie fountain pen.  It is in excellent condition - in fact, the only thing I can see to mention on this pen is that there is a tiny bit of discolouration to the plating on the point.  There are no scratches or other damage to cap or barrel, and all the rest of the trim is bright and shiny with no brassing apparent.  The top of the cap has a conical ended button that holds on the gold plated Conway Stewart pocket clip.  This has the "CS" logo within a diamond at the top and another diamond shape at the bottom.  There is a single gold plated band around the cap lip.  On the barrel is a clear and deep imprint.  This is a propel-repel pencil that works by twisting the cap.  I have installed a fresh 1.18mm lead into the mechanism so it is all ready to go.  The original box is in lovely condition too with no real damage on it at all.  Inside is the original instruction slip.  

I have fully serviced this pencil.  It has been fitted with a fresh lead.  All the internal mechanism is in excellent condition and the pencil works well.
