Default My Pilot is a Pig...really

This is a Brand new mint, New-old-stock Pilot Pig. Yep, maybe the worst
name ever given to a pen. Says so right on the sticker. I have a few of
these. They are brand new, never used, with sticker, in box (modern box),
Mint. Probably for the 1970's or so but don't know exactly. Nice black
resin pen with gold plated trim. It has a large gold cap band, very solid
clip and a huge integrated nib. The nib is gold plated steel and is a size
FM. Maybe that mean Fine-Medium but it looks very fine to me. Cap snaps on
and it has a squeeze converter filling system. It's also unusual in that
the converter screws in, something I haven't seen on many of these old
Pilots. I really like this pen. Here is a photo:

The Pig is $30.00. This includes shipping in the US or Canada. E-mail me
at if interested. Cheers, BOB

It's pretty stiff like most Pilot steel nibs. Cheers, Bob
