Color: Black; Gold
An executive Shaeffer's Lifetime pencil, ca. 1928. The artifact has a gold-colored tip, cap, and pocket clasp, while the barrel is a marbleized design with black, gold, and hints of white. There is still some lead in the item. The company name is etched onto the flat facing side of the clasp and on the cap, the latter of which also has the style name of "Lifetime" and the descriptor "gold filled." A notice that the patent is pending is also on the cap along with the above. Aside from surface scratches and edge abrasions, the object is in good condition.
