6. Parker Vacumatic - Rare Burgundy Color
Pictures: https://imgur.com/a/o7otf
This is one of the bigger Vacumatic size pen I used, it measures just under 5.20 inches. Feels great in the hand and relatively thicker in diameter then some of the other vacumatics I used. I don't know if it oversized or major sized? Not sure.
Vacumatic Filler - Restored, easily sucks up ink. It is the aluminum mechanism.
Rare 14k Gold Two-Toned Parker Nib - Fine to Medium Point, great writer. what's most special about this nib the flexible nib. I haven't experienced a Parker nib this flexible, it is very soft and flexible. See writing sample.
Pen is in great condition for it's age but it's not perfect. No major cracks or scratches, few light scratches but nothing major. The blind cap is missing the finial. The finial on top of the cap has a small chip to it though the finial is secure and stable. The cap band has three rings but are no longer gold colored.
The body has good transparency, I can see through it when held up to light. The transparency of barrel allows for one to visualize ink level in barrel.
Sale also comes with a vacumatic pencil. I'm not sure what color pencil is, because the color looks like a mix of brown and red color but I assume it is brown color. I don't know if it works, so assume it is for parts/restoration.
SOLD

Oversized size, measures roughly 5.5 inches capped.
Lever Filler - works, sac is pliable and easily sucks up ink.
14k Gold Nib - Fine point, smooth writer, the nib writes a bit stubbish with broader vertical ines and thinner horizontal lines. Not a flex nib but you can get some line variation with pressure.
Pen is in great condition for it's age, no major chips cracks or scratches. There are a few light scratches on black grip section. Some mild plating loss on the clip. Otherwise in great condition.
The red Celluloid is truly beautiful, one of my favorite vintage materials.
