Did The Pfm Ii Fp & Pencil Set Include A Ballpen?

[depstein]

Hello All

 

I have picked up a mint condition PFM II (Burgundy) which is boxed togther with a Sheaffer ballpen. Both the FP and pencil have a faint white overprint PFM II on the barrels and both are still wrapped in the original cellophane wrapping. The ball pen is the anomaly - no white overprint and no Sheaffer White dot which leads me to believe that it is not part of the original set. Can anyone shed light on this? Also any idea of value?

 

Thanks

I don't believe PFM sets came with a ball pen, just pencils.

Given that the ballpoint has "Sheaffer's" on the clip, my hunch is that it was a bonus thrown in by the original store that the pen was purchased at ("If you buy this PFM set, I'll throw in one of these ballpoints that I have [points to a separate showcase]").
