Hi all,

The pens on this sales list are all fresh from my workbench.
They have all been restored inside and out, and are ready to
fill with ink and write.


If you see one or more pens that you like, please E-mail me at:

michael@northwestpenworks.com

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

4. c. 1946 Parker Duofold New Style, blue pearl and black, made in
England. The nib is a smooth Broad Oblique. It makes about a .8 mm
line at the widest and is a wet writer. This pen is a button fill and
the brass button is just like the ones used in earlier Parker
Duofolds. The high edges on the tip of the clip have some brassing and
so does the outside edge of the tassi on the blind cap. Capped the pen
measures 5 1/8 inches or 12.6 cm. These are fairly hard to find pens
in any color.

Price $250.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

5. ~SOLD~ to B.F.

1933 Sheaffer's mini-Balance in Emerald (aka sea green and black).
I think the actual model name is Petit. There is a speck of brassing
just beginning on either side of the clip. The color in the barrel
appears to be near perfect. The nib is a smooth Extra Fine 14K 3-25. I
included a close-up photo of the cap, because I noticed something odd.
The cap had been drilled above the clip for a white dot, then plugged
with a green pearl dot and made into a lower priced pen with a 3-25
nib. This was done at the factory.

~SOLD~ to B.F. $115.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

imprint, with sharp raised edges. The nib is a smooth writing Extra

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 can also ship to other countries by
Priority Mail, but I prefer to ship by Express International Mail. I
have to charge by Express International Mail, depending on which
country the item will be sent to, but it can be insured and can
usually be tracked online.

Return Policy: I will always allow pens, or other items, to be
returned. f 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!
