Hi all,
If you see one or more pens that you like, please reply to me at:
michael@northwestpenworks.com
If you intend to make a purchase, please read "Rules, shipping,
etcetera" at the bottom of this post.
1. 1946 Parker Vacumatic Junior in silver pearl. There is no damage to
report. The silver colored trim is exceptional and is probably the
nicest example of a silver pearl 1940's Vacumatic that I have ever
had. The barrel imprint is fairly crisp and deep and the barrel
clarity is much better than average, with only very light ambering,
see photos. I decided that I would go ahead and do a writing sample
with the pen, but if it were mine I would probably not use it, but
whether you buy it and use it is entirely up to you. The nib is a
smooth writing Fine 14K arrow. The condition is Excellent.
Price $195.00 shipping with insurance included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

2. ~SOLD~ to C.B.
Early version Sheaffer's Imperial Touchdown in gold filled. I think
Sheaffer's started making this pen in 1961, but I am not sure how long
it was produced with the Touchdown fill system. This is a very nice
example and has no brassing, dings or major scratches. The nib is a
smooth writing Fine 14K. The pen is vertically lined and the indicia
panel has not been personalized. Capped the pen measures 5 3/8 inches
or 13.7 cm.
~SOLD~ to C.B. $175.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

3. c. 1952 Soennecken 105 in black and silver herringbone. The filling
system is a typical German twist piston fill. The pen fills very well.
It has a small bit of brassing on the top edge of the tip of the clip.
The nib is a very smooth soft writing Fine with quite a bit of flex
when moderate pressure is applied. Capped the pen measures 4 5/8
inches or 11.6 cm. This is a very attractive pen and an uncommon
model.
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 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. 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!
