| Shortly after the end of World War II in Europe Mabie Todd and Company England Limited made a resurgence, back to business as usual, although the company failed to foresee the threat to business caused resulting from the advent of the new biro ballpoint pen.
Manufactured in or about 1946 this Blackbird fountain pen and fyne poynt propelling pencil set, housed in the original presentation box, has remained over the years in pristine condition.
The 14 carat gold medium point size nib is correctly engraved Blackbird.
Replacement leads are available to fit the Fyne Poynt propelling pencil.
The gold plated pocket clips are each engraved Blackbird.
A superb two piece set attractively patterned in a mottled blue marble effect of light and dark blue colours. |
