Item:
Vintage Desk Collectible
Description:
For Sale is a
1951
Marble Base Pen Holder & Brass Perpetual Flip Calendar.
I know it is most likely made in 1951 because the first year that can be used is 1952.  There is no maker's name on the green felt underside any longer.   The years that it could be used for are from
1952 - 2002.
So, it is a
"50 Year Perpetual Calendar".
I am sure my photos will best further describe this item.
Condition:
On a scale of 1 - 10 (Ten being New in Package Only), I can confidently grade this item's condition to be a
solid 7.5 at least.
Overall and Especially for being 70+ Years Old, this Desk Collectible is in
Very Good Working
Condition.  The Marble Base has some slight soiling which could be cleaned with proper marble cleanser but there are no cracks but the green felt underside is worn.   Two corners of the marble base have a smooth beveled edge.  But the other two don't.  I don't know if those corners are very small chipped or not.  If so, then very small and very smooth.  They look intentionally beveled but two others aren't so I question it.  The Black plastic or possibly Bakelite Pen Holder is in a Brass Ball Swivel and functions well.  The Brass Perpetual Calendar flips with no problems and also functions.  It is securely attached to the marble base.  My photos are an accurate depiction of this item's
TRUE
Condition.
