Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Restored 1928 Parker Senior Flat Top Duofold Fountain Pen in Red Permanite. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, ultrasonically cleaned, put back together, and is now in superb writing condition.

I have ultrasonically cleaned the feed and section. I replaced the old sac with a new properly sized rubber sac. I hand-polished the gold-filled Parker Clip, Double Ring Cap Banding, and 14K Duofold nib. I have cleaned, buffed, and polished the barrel, blind cap, and cap to bring back the vibrancy and to protect the red permanite material of the fountain pen . This Parker Duofold is the Senior Size and measures 5 3/8" capped and 6 7/8" 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 PAT. SEPT 5 16 Clip stamped and has been polished to shine brightly with no wear. The cap banding has been polished and displays a bright gold-filled color with no wear. The barrel is stamped with, "GEO. S. PARKER DUOFOLD MADE IN U.S.A". There are no monograms or personalizations on either the cap or barrel.  The knurling on the blind cap and cap screw are crisp. 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 and stamped, "PARKER DUOFOLD MADE IN U.S.A. with date code 37 for 1927 in the 3rd quarter". The actual writing portion (iridium tip) of the 14K Parker NIB has a medium point measuring roughly .62mm when measured with digital calipers. When writing a sample with this NIB, it writes with a medium to broad stroke/line. In the writing sample provided, the medium line measures at .66mm, and will flex to a broad line that measures at 1.03mm 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 Parker Blue Ink.

This is an Iconic vintage Parker Duofold Fountain Pen in the Senior size. These are getting more and more difficult to find undamaged in the orange color. I would consider this Parker Duofold to easily grade in Excellent+ Condition  This Parker Senior Duofold is in ready-to-write condition or just add it to your writing arsenal collection.
