Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Restored 1936 Parker Streamline Senior Duofold Fountain Pen in Green jade Celluloid. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, ultrasonically cleaned, put back together, and is now in wonderful writing condition.

I have ultrasonically cleaned the NIB, feed, and section. Replaced the old sac with a new, properly sized sac. Hand polished the gold-filled Parker clip, 2-Ring cap banding, and 14K two-tone Duofold nib. I have cleaned, buffed, and polished the barrel, blind cap, and cap to bring back the vibrancy of the fountain pen and protect the celluloid. This Parker Duofold is the Streamline Senior Size and measures 5 1/8" capped and 6 1/4" posted.

The fountain pen cap, barrel, and blind cap are in magnificent condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs. The Cap has a Gold Filled Parker Clip with PAT SEPT 5 - 16 stamped and has been polished to shine bright and displays no brassing. The 2-ring cap banding displays rich gold-filled color with no wear. The barrel is clearly stamped with, "GEO. S. PARKER DUOFOLD MADE IN U.S.A. PATENTED and date code 6 (for 1936) in the 2nd quarter". There are no monograms or personalizations to either the cap or barrel. The color of this Parker is exceptional - it will be hard to find a better color.

This Duofold has a button-filling mechanism which I have tested with water and fills as it should.

This Duofold has a very uncommon two-tone Duofold nib. The Parker Duofold NIB 14K with Platinum plating on the upper portion. The actual writing portion (iridium) of the 14K Parker NIB has a medium point measuring roughly .75mm when measured with digital calipers. When writing a sample with this NIB, it writes with a fine to medium stroke/line. In the writing sample provided, the fine line measures at .55mm, and the medium line measures at .75mm with medium to firm pressure when measured with digital calipers. The writing sample was done with the actual pen in the images that are listed for sale. The writing sample was used by dipping the NIB in Montblanc Blue Ink.

This is an Iconic vintage Parker Streamline Duofold Fountain Pen in the Senior size. It is a very scarce Duofold due to the condition of the Green Jade celluloid material - hard to find them this clean. I would consider this Parker to grade in Excellent+ to Near Mint Condition. One would be hard-pressed to find another pen in this type of condition. It is ready to write or just add it to your writing arsenal collection.
