Description

For your consideration we are offering for sale this Gorgeous Restored 1940 Double Jewel Parker Shadow-Wave Fountain Pen in Golden Pearl Celluloid. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned and put back together and now is in wonderful writing condition.

I have ultrasonically cleaned the NIB, feed, section, breather tube, cap and barrel. Replaced the old diaphragm with a new, properly sized one. Hand polished the Parker Split Arrow Gold Filled Clip, Chevron Cap Banding, Bottom Tassel and 14K Split Arrow NIB. Cleaned, Buffed, Polished & Waxed the barrel and cap to bring back the vibrancy and to protect the finish of the fountain pen.

This fountain pen cap and barrel are in good condition with no cracks, chips, or repairs. The cap has the Gold Filled Split Arrow Clip that displays no brassing. The Chevron Cap Banding displays a wonderful gold filled color, again, with no brassing. The top and bottom jewels are black and polished to high shine. The jeweled blind cap securely fits. The barrel is faintly stamped with, "Geo. S. Parker Parker Vacumatic Made in USA and date code is very faint, almost illegible, but it appears to be a 0 for 1940 ". The transparency of the barrel is excellent and one can easily see through the barrel, albeit with mild ambering. There are no monograms or personalizations on the cap or barrel. This Parker Vacumatic Shadow Wave Fountain Pen is a Debutante Model that measures 4 5/8" in length capped and 5 1/4" posted.

The Speedline Vacumatic Filling System works great, typically in my tests with water about 6 to 7 presses and it will fill full. This Speedline Filling Unit operates smoothly and works as it was designed to. I have greased the filling unit to provide continuous smooth operation for years to come.

The NIB is a 14K Parker USA Split Arrow that has a medium point measuring roughly .71mm when measured with digital calipers. When writing a sample, the NIB writes with a fine to broad stroke / line. The writing sample provided in the image, the thinnest stroke measures .54mm and can flex to a roughly .93mm with normal pressure. The sample was done with the actual pen in the images that is listed for sale. The writing sample was used by dipping the NIB in Parker Quink Blue-Black Ink.

Any specks of white in the images are from the cotton that I used to clean the barrel and cap.

This Parker Vacumatic Shadow Wave Fountain Pen in the Golden Pearl color that is ready to write or just add to writing arsenal collection. I would grade this Parker Vacumatic in Excellent Condition and is a great addition to your Shadow Wave Collection.
