This is a set of Cross Pen writing instruments in silver finish. Both items are in good condition and write and retract well, although one needs a new ink refill. They show the wear and tear that you would expect after a number of years. Both have engraving, one with "Gates and Johnson Co" and the other with "L.H.R." that is very difficult to see.The box does not have a top.What you see is what you get. They will ship quickly and well packaged to you.
