Hey all,
I stumbled across a Mandarin Yellow Parker Lady Duofold "Lucky Curve" ring-top pen at a local antiques store today. I'm guessing, based on my reading, that this one is ca. 1929-ish, but I would love any additional information that any of your Parker experts might have on this pen. I've disassembled it already, and need to spend a fair bit of time cleaning it out. (There is crazy ink inside the cap).
This isn't the repair thread, either, but I'd love any suggestions for things to do/not do when I get started on this repair. There is, for instance, a small crack on the lip of the cap. Should I do anything with that, or just leave it as is?
Info or suggestions greatly appreciated.
