MS801 Fisher Space Pen AG7 Ballpoint

Date: c2000s

Size: Length - 128mm.  

A lovely bright and shiny chrome plated Fisher Space Pen that is in excellent and near pristine condition.  I cannot see any damage at all on this pen - not even the usual light and wispy scratches that you nearly always get with these highly polished finishes.  This is the original design of the Space Pen - almost identical to the ones carried on the Apollo moon missions.  It has an interesting retracting mechanism where the writing point is extended by pressing on the top button and retracted by pressing on a button adjacent to the pocket clip.  Needless to say that the mechanism works perfectly.  The pocket clip is imprinted "Fisher AG7".  To the side of the cap is "Apollo 11 / July 20 1969" with the large Fisher Space Pen logo beneath.  The gripping point on the lower part of the barrel is ribbed to afford a good purchase.  The cap will unscrew to allow the filling of the pen with any Fischer style refill.  It is currently fitted with a black Fisher pressurised refill that works very well. 

I have fully serviced this pen.  It works - and writes - perfectly.
