Description

For your consideration we are offering for sale this Beautifully Restored 1934 1st Generation Parker Double Jewel Burgundy Pearl Celluloid Fountain Pen. This fountain pen has been thoroughly taken apart, cleaned and put back together and now is in wonderful writing condition. NEAR MINT CONDITION this Parker is in.

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 Feather Gold Filled Split Arrow Clip, 3-Ring Cap Banding, 14K 2-Tone Parker U.S.A. NIB and bottom tassel. The gold filled trim displays "No Brassing". Cleaned, Buffed, Polished and Waxed the barrel and cap to bring back the vibrancy of fountain pen and to protect the celluloid. This Parker Vacumatic is a Jr Size which measures 4 5/8" capped and 5 7/8" posted.

This fountain pen cap and barrel are in magnificent condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. The cap has the Feather Split Arrow gold filled clip with the 3-Ring Cap Banding with no brassing. The top & bottom jewels are striped to match the cap and barrel and polished to a glorious shine. The section is also striped to match the pen's cap, barrel and jewels. The barrel is clearly and crisply stamped with, "Geo. S. Parker Vacumatic Made in U.S.A. with date code 1934 in the 3rd quarter". There are no monograms or personalization to either the cap or barrel. The transparency of the barrel is excellent and a person can easily see through the barrel. The blind cap securely fits. I have tested the filling mechanism with water and fills as it should. The Lockdown Vacumatic Filling System works great, typically in my tests with water about 6 to 8 presses to fill full. I have greased the filling unit, so it operates smoothly.

The Parker NIB is a 14K Gold 2-Tone Split Arrow NIB, which has a smooth writing experience. The platinum coating on the NIB is fully intact and just looks amazing. The 14K Parker NIB has a medium point measuring roughly .87mm when measured with digital calipers. When writing a sample with this NIB, it writes with a fine line to a double broad stroke line. In the writing sample provided, the extra fine line measures at .42mm and the double broad line measures at 1.26mm when measuring with digital calipers. The writing 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 is a beautiful vintage Parker Vacumatic Fountain Pen in the Burgundy Pearl Celluloid that has all the "high-line" features; 3-Ring Cap Banding, 2-Tone NIB, Striped Section, Striped top and bottom Jewels with excellent transparency. I would consider this Parker to fall in Near Mint Condition - certainly collector grade. It is ready to write or just add it to your writing arsenal collection.
