Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Restored Circa 1926 Parker Flattop Lucky Curve Senior Duofold Fountain Pen in Red Permanite as known by most "BIG RED". 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 rubber sac. Hand polished the Gold Filled Parker Clip, Cap Banding, and 14K Duofold NIB. Cleaned, Buffed, and Polished the barrel, blind cap and cap to bring back the vibrancy of fountain pen and to protect the material of the pen. This Parker Duofold is the Senior Size and measures 5 1/2" capped and 6 7/8" posted.

The fountain pen cap, barrel, and blind cap are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. The Cap has a Gold Filled Parker Clip with "PARKER PAT SEPT 5-16" stamped and has been polished to shine brightly - there is only the very slightest of wear on the ball of the clip. The cap banding displays rich gold filled color with no wear. The barrel is clearly and crispy stamped with, "GEO. S. PARKER PARKER DUOFOLD FOUNTAIN PEN JANESVILLE, WIS LUCKY CURVE U.S.A. PAT. 4-25-11. There are no monograms or personalizations to either the cap or barrel. The cap and barrel are super clean with no discoloration and consistent coloring between the cap and barrel.

This Duofold is a Button Filler and has been tested with water and fills as it should. The filling unit operates as it was originally intended.

The Parker NIB is 14K with a PARKER DUOFOLD MADE IN USA imprint. The actual writing portion of the 14K Parker NIB has a medium point measuring roughly .63mm when measured with digital calipers. When writing a sample with this NIB, it writes with a medium stroke/line. In the writing sample provided, the medium line measures between .65mm to .83mm when measuring 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 Duofold Fountain Pen in the Senior size and is a gorgeous example from Parker that is very clean with a great writing nib. I would consider this Parker grade in Excellent Condition. It is ready to write or just add it to your writing arsenal collection.
