646647648646647648Here I have for sale the two pens I thought I wouldn't sell. I simply like my DJ Vac more....
The Vacumatic: See my review if you want me whole take. This is a later model--single jewel, plastic filler, nice barrel clarity and O.K imprint. Overall great condition. Professionally restored by Tyler Dahl, four months ago. Smooth wet XF nib. The cap has a bit of ink staining on it--blame Diamine Kelly Green for that. The blind cap is a bit worn too (no bite marks though.) I paid $85 for it. Take it with (almost) no further damage for $75 Shipped.
The Duofold: Missing a Sac---I restored it, but I unscrewed the barrel one day, and broke the sac. I cleaned it all up--no sac remnants or anything of that sort. Just put in a new sac and you're good to go. Smooth dryer XXF-XF nib. The cap has a bit of wear, the barrel is discolored...etc. It has seen almost 90 years of use.... The imprint is Excellent though. Just above the value of the nib at $35 Shipped.
[I]Take both for $45 Shipped!!!!
Wait there's more! ;) (I feel like a Infomercial salesguy right now...) If you take both, I will also include an flexy nib for a vintage Aurora 88. REALLY flexy, but it needs a tine alignment and a teeny bit of smoothing. Thats $20 right there.
Thanks for Viewing!!
