No, the sellers I'm talking about are the ones who have something they don't understand, so they are describing it to the best of their ability -- and also to the best of my entertainment. They are being completely honest in trying to describe exactly what they are seeing and don't realize that they've gotten things a little mixed up.
The best example, which comes up on a regular basis, are the "PATO" pens and pencils you see listed every so often . . .
NOTE: This article is now included in the print version of The Leadhead's Pencil Blog, available anywhere you buy books, or also from The Legendary Lead Company.

I find your post interesting because I have a Mabie Todd that is 10kt solid gold not plate or roll. It is a retractable version with a 1917 patient date.
