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.
Pen #1. 1947 Parker "51" short/stubby model in Cordovan Brown with solid
line gold filled cap. The pen barrel has the name "Jean M. Bush"
imprinted on it. The cap has no brassing, dings, dents, etc. It does
have micro scratches here and there. The nib is a smooth writing Fine
in 14K and writes a nice wet line. It has a Vacumatic fill system. I
have an affinity for these short model 51's, because they were only
made for a relatively short time span and they will fit about any size
of shirt pocket. Capped the pen measures 4 3/4 inches or 12.3 cm.
Price reduced to $135.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

2. ~SOLD~ to E.D.
Parker "51" Aerometric fill in India Black with Lustraloy cap. This
is a full size model. I do not know what year this pen was made,
because someone obliterated the barrel imprint. The cap has not been
refinished and has some light scratches and micro scratches from
normal use. The cap is dent free. I did polish the barrel and hood.
The nib is a smooth writing Extra Fine 14K.
~SOLD~ to E.D. $125.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

3. 1937 to '45 Sheaffer's oversize "Premier" Balance pen in black.
There is no brassing on the clip, cap band or the lever. The lever has
a slight bend, probably do to someone trying to lift the lever against
an ossified ink sac. The cap has some slight unevenness on the back
side, between the cap band and the vent holes. The nib is a wet
writing Extra Fine two tone 14K."Lifetime". The nib is one of the
later ones that is upswept, just behind the tip.Capped the pen
measures 5 1/2 inches or 14 cm.
Price reduced to $175.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping see
"Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

Rules, shipping, etcetera:
Prices are post paid in the U.S., and will be shipped with delivery
confirmation and insurance. There has been a large price increase in
shipping to Canada (over double what it was) so shipping to Canada
will be extra. I also ship internationally, if you pay the price
difference between U.S. shipping and international. It's not a large
difference in most cases, usually about $25.00 extra. I will not
falsify declared values on U.S. Postal customs forms on shipping
to other countries. It is a large fine and not worth the risk,
not to mention unethical.
The usual rules apply, the person sending the first e-mail on an item
~stating intent to purchase~ gets the item, don't assume the item has
been sold, they don't always sell immediately. I'll give you 3 days
to decide if you like the pen or not. I accept PayPal, checks or money
orders in USD. All pens will be shipped U.S. Priority Mail with
insurance and delivery confirmation. I ship worldwide, so
international customers are always welcome.
Return Policy: I will always allow pens, or other items, to be
returned as long as it is not for a frivolous reason and the item is
Returned in the same condition as when it was shipped from here.
If there should be 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.
All pens have been restored inside and outside, nibs adjusted and
smoothed, when necessary, clips tightened, etc. I give a lot of
attention to minute details on a pen, that some would not notice.
It's just my own obsessive behavior, which is good for you, the
buyer. The pencils have been restored outside, and are in good
working condition unless stated otherwise. The pens are ink tested,
so I know, and you can be assured, that they are actually functioning
properly.
Happy penning!
