1970's Platinum 22K Gold

"Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing."

-Socrates

Detailed Description

Here is an elegant vintage Platinum 22 pen in the short design.

The clip is a spring hinge type so it easily adjusts to any pocket width, and prevents the pen from falling out of your pocket.

Shortly after Pilot launched the pocket pen style with their Elete whcih started a craze fad in Japan, Platinum and Sailor were looking for ways to grab some of the market. Sailor tried launching a pocket pen with a 21K gold nib. Platinum raised the stakes with this 22Kgold nib pen. Sailor would top them off with a 23K gold pen, but by then the fad was fading. Today, finding either the 22K or 23K pens is very difficult.

The sleek capband has the name Platinum under the gold inlay 22

These pens are fantastic writers, and I always have one of these in my briefcase.

Also note that We have just moved from Okinawa to Tokushima. I am still unpacking boxes, but I wanted to start up the pen business again as quickly as possible. I'd like to thank everyone who sent mail, supporting us during the move.

On March 14th I had the broadband internet installed, and I am still working out the kinks. I can receive mail to my rd@kamakurapens.com account, but the provider is not letting me send mail out this way. For now I am using doctork@mb.pikara.ne.jp or kamakurapens@gmail.com. I bring this up because recently, many scam artists have sent mail to my bidders posing as me. If you receive a mail from someone posing as a member of kamakurapens, but is using a different e-mail, be very suspicious and send a message to me through ebay.

Nib:

Nice 22k Yellow Gold iridium tipped,Fine point nib.

 
Filling System
Cartridge filler, Cartridges Included.
Working Condition
Mint
 
Faults:
The original price sticker is a little faded, but the pen itself is perfect.
Payment
I prefer Paypal, but will accept International Money Orders from a post office or bank transfers.

Note

If you have any questions at all, please send me an email at rd@kamakurapens.com

  Also keep in mind that you only need to pay shipping once for an order. If you win one item and intend to bid on more, simply let us know and we will hold your pens and ship them all together to save you money. Also it is true that we often ship bonus items with our orders. No Parker Snakes or solid gold overlay pens, nothing like that, but always something interesting. So if you receive all your pens and find something extra, it wasn't a mistake. Keep in mind that a bonus is simply that. Do not bid, expecting one, and we certainly can not take orders on what someone thinks their bonus should be, but we do like to make sure our bidders are always happy and completely satisfied with their wins.
