Rotring
Pens and Ephemera

No pencil is more ideal for modern aficionados than the Rotring Trio Pen. Even though the name pen is on the barrel, it is a pencil with 3 different mechanisms! There is a set up with .3mm lead, .5mm lead and .7mm lead. All three appear to be working in this iconic classic pencil. The metal construction of the pen makes it extra sturdy, but it does show light wear from use. Loved by engineers, drafting architects, mathematicians and leadheads the world over. 14.5cm.

Remember what a big deal we thought the Millennium would be? Everything was branded with millennium, such as this Rotring Millennium "ArtPen." Rotring vowed to make these through the year 2000. This is the 1996 edition. It appears to be New Old Stock. No trace of wear and the nib doesn't seem to be dipped. You get all of its original boxes and papers. The cap was hand lacquered and looks better than this photo can convey. Click the headline for close-ups. Its two-tone nib looks as if it is gold, but it is not marked such. It is marked "M" for medium, but we have not dipped it to preserve its newness. It fills with standard international cartridges. It comes with the original empty dummy cartridge and an unopened but dried out cartridge. 17.8cm capped.
