This1950's ROSA twist action mechanical is from an original production lot and has never been used! IT IS A NEW UNUSED ORIGINAL. These pencils were sold as part of a set with our changeable point fountain pens. The caps are 'lined' polished brass. The mechanisms use the heavier .046 diameter leads (graphite) that was popular in the 1950's. Once you write with this pencil you will wonder why most current production pencils changed to extra fine leads!! As always, if you are not completely satisfied with our products you can return them for a full refund. We will include a vile of ten (10) .046 leads with this purchase. and the original gift box that it was packaged in !For your information, this pencil comes from a lot of pencils that was found during a clean-up operation from Hurricane Sandy .Rosa Pen Company's factory and warehouse were destroyed in four feet of flooding from water the Governor ordered released from upstream reservoirs.
