One for you pen collectors out there. A rare example of the Matte black Namiki Vanishing Point, even more so as it was one of the last produced by Namiki before Pilot took over and added horrid Chrome to everything.
Bought by myself new in 1999, Serial # 60260. It is used and shows the patina (patina is of course cool) of a years use, but no damage whatsoever, never dropped. The medium nib writes beautifully. It comes with a mint condition presentation box, the bulb pump (never used) and cover (I used cartridges) all the original bumpf, blank registration card and a retirement certificate. Outer box is a little scruffy but intact. The item "Namiki Vanishing Point fountain pen. Matte black with'Retirement Certificate'" is in sale since Saturday, March 23, 2019.
