Description

502 520 Rotring 500 2mm push mechanical pencil
(not confirmed but expected article number)

One of the rarest of rotring pencils.
As part of the 500 burgundy series that came out with development of fine lead in the end of the 70s.
Exact date of production of this one is unknown but should be in the range of 1982-1986. since the new logo is printed on it
that was used after 1982 and first fine leads 500 came in 1986.
This one was not listed in any so far known catalogs...so still this little is known about it.

It has rather simple push mechanism uncommon for 2mm pencils which usually have clutch system.


I know of existence of three pieces.

This one was acquired from Jan Schubert from Berlin, Germany at special price for the Rotring Museum.
Thank you Jan for your support!
