This grey Mentmore Diploma measures 13.3 cm capped. It is in excellent condition with no cracks, scratches or bite marks. The gold plating is very good throughout. The barrel imprint is crisp and clear. The slip cap fits firmly. A new sac has been fitted and the pen fills and writes well (see writing sample). The 14 carat gold Mentmore nib is a firm fine.

An excellent example of this post-war Mentmore and an excellent writer.
