Pilot Elite Fountain Pen Vintage 1975 Showa Retro Discontinued Rare Matte Black Short Size Pocket Size Medium Nib M Writing Instrument Collector Antique As-Is ○Condition Slightly scratched and dirty. This is a "Pilot Elite" manufactured in January 1975 (engraved H175). It is a rare matte black barrel, but there is white hardening due to age in the threaded parts. I will leave it as "as-is" without cleaning or checking the operation, as it was at the time. I will sell it to someone who enjoys maintenance themselves or understands it as the taste of history. ○Color Matte Black *The appearance of the color may differ from the actual product depending on your monitor environment. ○Purchase Source Brand reuse store, member of the Association Against Counterfeit Product Distribution (AACD) Pawn shop, antique market, store product, appraised item Other online purchases, personal items no longer needed, etc. ○Shipping Ships within 1-2 days with simple packaging.
