Our Spitfire N3200 pen features design elements inspired by the legendary aircraft. It includes acid-etched rivets and panels, painted with a matching camouflage pattern. The aircraft's tail numbers are printed next to the British Roundel, and the fin flash of Britain's three colors can be seen on the top disc. The pen is finished with black-nickel accents, including the IWM logo on the top ring and the engraving of the pen's serial number. Each pen is packed in commemorative packaging with foil-stamped graphics representing the aircraft.
Built in 1939, the original Supermarine Spitfire Mark 1a was assigned to No. 19 Squadron at RAF Duxford in April 1940. During the Dunkirk evacuation, Squadron Leader Geoffrey Stephenson successfully flew the Spitfire N3200 in his first and only mission during 'Operation Dynamo', shooting down a Stuka before being shot down himself. He made a forced landing on a beach near Calais and was captured, remaining a prisoner until the end of the war.
After being buried in sand for forty-five years, the Spitfire was unearthed in 1986. Purchased by Dr. Thomas Kaplan and Simon Marsh in 2000, it was fully restored and donated to the Imperial War Museum in 2015. The Duke of Cambridge received it during his visit to Duxford, where he witnessed the Mark 1a fighter plane fly again after 75 years. Details and Specifications:
