Lovely Rare Vintage Sampson Mordan & Co Twist Pencil Silver & Porcupine Quill
This is one of a number of really rare and unusual pens that Iwill listing over the next few weeks. Even if its just for interest sake pleasedo take a look at some of my other listings.The pencil is made by Sampson Mordan and stamped S. MORDAN &CO on the silver top section. The twist mechanism works smoothly and the pencilis in working order. It takes what appears to be a 1mm lead.
...
The barrel is made from Porcupine quill as you can imagine, it is a ratherfragile material so sadly there is 1 small crack near the top as shown in thephotos. Aside from this, the condition is actually quite good. It’s still quitea rare pencil and can’t imagine many like this in Porcupine have lasted toowell so perhaps the condition is actually quite good.
It could do with a good clean and polish but thought it best to leave this tothe new owner as I liked the patina as is.
