FI020: Fisher Astronaut No. AG7-11 Apollo 11 Commemoration, boxed.

Date: NEW

Size: Length - 5 1/8 inches.

This Fisher Space Pen is brand new, boxed, and comes with a full manufacturer's warranty.  I purchased a selection of these pens to assess their quality and "feel" prior to selling them as a regular line.  Having peen suitably impressed with them, I am offering this selection for sale.  None of the pens have been used apart from just making sure they write perfectly.  As you may know, the Fisher pen is used on all manned space missions.  They use the unique pressurised refills and will write in a vacuum, under water, over grease, and on almost any smooth surface.  They will withstand extremes of temperature and have an estimated shelf life of over 100 years.  

This is the model that has been used since 1968 in all manned space missions by both the U.S. and Russia.  It has been in continuous production since 1968.  This is the special edition pen that has the Apollo 11 commemorative engraving.  Around the cap is engraved "This AG7 Model Pen Was Used As A Tool To Save The Apollo 11.  Man's first landing on the moon July 20th 1969"

On the barrel is engraved a suited astronaut standing beside the American flag and below the names of Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins, with a tiny command module below.

The RRP for these pens in the UK is £69.95.
