Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this Restored Circa 1925 Parker Senior Duofold Fountain Pen in Chinese Red Hard Rubber. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned, put back together, and now is in wonderful writing condition.

The significance of this particular Parker Duofold, for those who do not know, is the material being red hard rubber and having the large imprint. In addition, it is a circa 1925 production year fountain pen in the Chinese Red Hard Rubber material that Parker collector have a hard time finding.

The fountain pen cap, barrel, and blind cap are in great condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. The Cap has a Gold Filled Parker Clip with PAT SEP 5 - 16 stamped and has been polished to shine bright with no signs of wear. The raised single cap band does not display wear and is polished to shine brightly once again. The barrel is stamped with, Large DUOFOLD imprint along with "GEO. S. PARKER FOUNTAIN PEN JANESVILLE WIS. U.S.A. LUCKY CURVE BANNER LOGO PAT 4-25-11". There are no monograms or personalizations to either the cap or barrel. The cap and barrel display absolutely wonderful even color. This Parker Duofold is the Senior Size and measures 5 1/2" capped and 6 1/2" posted.

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

The Parker NIB is 14K and stamped, "PARKER DUOFOLD PEN MADE IN USA". The actual writing portion (iridium tip) of the 14K Parker NIB has a medium point measuring roughly .70mm 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 .78mm and the broad line measures at 1.19mm 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. NOTE: The Nib on this Duofold writes  smooth with very little feedback.

This is Parker Senior Duofold is of simple design, yet, very significant due to the hard rubber material and large imprint. I would consider the condition of this Parker Duofold to be in Very Fine+ to Excellent Condition. It is a spectacular writing collectible and certainly a significant fountain pen that would make for a "holy grail" addition to one's writing arsenal collection.
