Dating Pilot Pens

[alexwi]

Hi,

 

I was trying to find information about a wooden Custom that I have and came across this site:

 

http://estilofilos.blogspot.com/2013/09/datation-of-japanese-pens-i-introduction.html

 

Links to parts 2, 3, and 4 of the article are on the right side of the web page.

 

Looks like my pen was made in June of 1979.

 

Moderators, if this is a duplicate post, please remove it. I apologize.

 

Alex

If you have what you need, why the post?

So that others can benefit from it.

 

When I first looked for this information, it didn't even show up on google's first 10 or so links (probably due to the use of the word "datation."

 

Actually, considering that site and pages constantly disappear, the right thing to do, which would've actually preserved the information, would have been to copy it here, but I didn't have a lot of time when I posted.

 

If this was a faux pas, by all means, delete it. No harm done.
