    Description

    This is a nice, original Quill brand pen for
    Farrell Shipping Lines. Farrell Lines Incorporated was a boat company named in 1948 after James A. Farrell, Jr., and John J. Farrell, sons of James Augustine Farrell, president of US Steel. The company was previously known as American South African Lines (ASAL). It was a passenger line and cargo line in regular service from New York City to South Africa stopping at Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, Durban and Lourenço Marques (Maputo) in Mozambique. The ships were well-appointed and carried about 180 passengers. Farrell Lines became a subsidiary of P&O Nedlloyd Container Line Ltd. in 2000, which was subsequently purchased by the A.P. Møller-Maersk Group in 2005.
    Box measures 6" x 2.25" and pen measures 5.5" long.
    There is some mild surface discoloration and some wear at edges of box. Pen appears to be in very good condition. It does not write as ink must be dried.
