I was gifted these two pens this week.

 

The Maki I recognize, but I don't know which of the many Pilot put out, its age or pedigree.

 

The ring top has no markings but the 14K nib.  It is about 2-3/4 inches closed.  It was a friend's mother's school pen so I suspect it is from the late 30s or 40s.

 

Any ideas about one or the other.  And is likely the ring top could have a replacement lever?

 

Many thanks.

The Pilot pen is model number FD-2000P-BN.  It is a late 80's pen and still in the 1989 catalog.  The orginal sticker price was 20,000 ¥.  You can go to Ryojusen Pens and look under ephemera.  There is a PDF copy of the 1989 Pilot catalog and you can find your pen there.
