Lot Description

A novelty telescopic pencil, modelled in the style of a plumb bob with six tapering sections and a globular terminal with reeded border and suspension ring attachment. Marked 'Thornhill No. 1516', also with Victorian registration mark for 1873. Length fully extended measures 3 1/2 inches (9 cm).

Postage: Auction Default

Weight: No

Total lot weight: No

The pencil displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use.  Some heavier scratches and contact marks are visible, also some small nicks/dints to the globular terminal.  However the overall condition appears fairly good and the telescopic action appears in working order.
