Comments: The pen has been partially disassembled, cleaned, and greased; the pen writes very well, F line, a bit wet, moderate feedback, slight yielding

Historical note: Both the brand (Super T) and the model (40) are very well documented. From R. Pujol, "La Ventafocs. Història de la ploma estilogràfica espanyola" (2022), pp. 196 - 198, given the cap clip of this pen, it can be dated between the end of 1953 and the end of 1959.
