Retro 51 Imperial War Museum Spitfire Rollerball Pen

Built in 1939, the Supermarine Spitfire Mark 1a was issued to No. 19 Squadron at RAF Duxford in April 1940. During the Dunkirk emergency evacuation, Squadron Leader Geoffrey Stephenson piloted Spitfire N3200 on its first and only mission during ‘Operation Dynamo,’ shooting down a Stuka before being shot down himself. He crash-landed on a beach near Calais and was captured, remaining a prisoner until the end of the war. The Retro 51 Tornado™ Spitfire N3200 rollerball pen has been acid-etched with rivets and panels and then painted in the matching camouflage pattern. The plane’s tail numbers have been printed alongside the British Roundel and the top disc is printed with Britain’s tri-color fin flash; it is completed with black-nickel accents that have the Imperial War Museum logo on the top ring alongside the pen’s serial number engraving. Each Tornado is packaged in a commemorative packaging with foil stamp.
