Hi all,

These pens have been restored inside and outside and are ready to fill with ink and use, unless noted otherwise.

If you see one or more pens that you like, please reply to me at:

If you intend to make a purchase, please read "Rules, Shipping, Etc." at the bottom of this post.

#1. circa 1929 Parker Duofold Senior "Deluxe" set in Moderne Black and Pearl. The pen is a different one from the one I sold recently. The only damage I noticed on the pen, other than barrel discoloration, is that the barrel imprint is nearly obliterated, by some old time pen repairman polishing it too aggressively, I suspect. There is no brassing on the clip or cap bands. The pencil clip has brassing across the ball. The gold filled bands and nozzle look good. The pencil mechanism is working well and it propels and repels the lead nice and smooth. The nib is a very smooth writing fat Fine. Capped the pen measures 5 1/8 inches or 13.0 cm.

Price for the set $325.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

2. circa 1928 Waterman's No. 94 in Olive Ripple. The gold filled trim has some brassing on the lever, the top edge of the clip, across the clip ball and a thin line around the top edge of cap band. It has a repaired crack on the barrel threads, which is to the right side of the nib. The imprints are gone, other than the 94 imprinted on the cap end. Taking these flaws into consideration, my price will be less than an Olive Ripple 52V. Capped the pen measures 5 1/16 inches or 12.8 cm. The nib is smooth, flexy and has a bit of stub effect. It is about an Extra Fine and writes from Extra Fine to about double broad 1.5 mm. The diameters of the cap and barrel are the same as a Waterman's 55, but 94's are about 5/16 inch shorter than a 55.

Price $225.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

3. circa 1928 Conklin fountain pen and pencil set in green. These are variously referred to as a Three Fifty Pen, Two Fifty Pencil (Conklin's designation) and many times called a "student set". The tip of the pen's clip has a speck of brassing on one side of the tip. The pencil mechanism seems to be working, but I think it has a lead too short to push out, so I will replace it. The pencil clip has a spot of brassing on one side and a flattened area on the nozzle. The nib is a Semi-Flexible Fine 14K and flexes from about Fine to Broad. Capped the pen measures 4 11/16 or 12.0 cm. The green sets and blue sets are less common than pens in the Endura line. They also came in red (orange) and also black.

Price $175.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

4. 1960's Sheaffer's PFM 5 (V) in burgundy with gold filled cap. These are an oversized pen and the PFM V's were pretty much the apex of the series. The top of the cap has a very thin line of brassing and a bump mark on the edge. There is also an extremely shallow bump mark towards the bottom of the cap and a small dent (1.5 mm?) next to the clip. The pens have a Snorkel filling tube and filling system, the last Snorkel model produced by Sheaffer's. The nib is a smooth writing fat Fine 14K inlaid into the section. The ink sac and a barrel o-ring have been replaced. Capped the pen measures 5 5/16 inches or 13.1 cm. The barrel diameter is 1/2 inch or 12.7 cm.

Price reduced to $350.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

5. circa 1927 Parker Duofold Senior desk pen in Lapis Blue (white on blue). This pen started out in life as a pocket pen, I purchased it as the barrel only. I mated it with a Duofold Senior taper and I have the blind cap that was on it when I bought it. I do not have a desk base for it or a cap, but it could easily be converted to a pocket pen, if you find a cap for it. There are a couple of not so obvious teeth marks on the taper, and about a 2 mm scratch on the barrel, next to the to the taper ring. There is a bit of discoloration next to the barrel threads, as you can see in the photos. The color is not perfect, but it is better than many Lapis Blue Parkers that I have seen. The nib is a smooth writing Medium 14K arrow replacement, with generous ink flow.

Price $295.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

Rules, Shipping, Etc.

The usual rules apply, the person sending the first e-mail on an item
~stating intent to purchase~ gets the item. I will give you 5 days to
decide if you like the pen or not. I prefer payment by PayPal but also
accept checks or money orders in USD. I can only accept payment by
PayPal from countries outside the U.S. I ship worldwide, so
international customers are always welcome.

Prices are post paid in the U.S., and will be shipped with a tracking
number and insurance. I normally ship inside the U.S. by U.S.
Postal Service Priority Mail. I also ship to other countries by Priority
Mail. I can also ship to other countries by Express International Mail,
if you request it, but it is costly.

Return Policy: I will always allow pens, or other items, to be
returned. If there is a problem I would prefer the chance to fix the problem
or replace the item, when and if possible. Otherwise a full refund
will be offered. If you find a problem and choose to send the item
(pen, mechanical pencil, etc.) to someone else to be corrected, I will
not be responsible for any other problems.

Happy penning!
