The holder is of the "pop-out" variety allowing it to be easy to remove. This style was available in a fluted or smooth lower metal portion. It is in good condition. The pen is a Parker Challenger in green and black marbled and in good condition. The nib is a 14K Parker Pen with a fine point. The button-fill pen has been restored with a new pen sac.
