PM077 Papermate Epic Ballpoint.

PM077 Papermate Epic Ballpoint.

Date: c1970s

Size: Length - 138mm.

An old stock Papermante ballpoint pen that is still in near pristine condition.  I have several of these pens that I purchased from the stock of an old stationery shop that has closed down, thus I can be certain that the y are genuine old stock items.  The Epic pen has a very unusual styling; it reminds me somewhat of an old Everhsap Coronet pen with its pierced crown and cone.  These aboth made from a delicately brushed metal, whereas the barre is made from a sparkly black resin.  The tapering pocket clip bears the Papermare double heart motif near the terminal.  The cone can be unscrewed in order to refill the pen.  It is currently fitted with its original Papermate refill that is working perfectly still.  This is a retractable pen that works by twisting the crown.  

I have fully serviced this pen.  It works perfectly.

The Epic seems to be a very hard to find model nowadays, especially in this genuine old stock condition.
