Hi all,
Four of the pens on this list are fresh off of the work bench and a
couple of them are ones that I ran on a list earlier this year.
These pens all have been restored inside and out and are ready to fill
with ink and use.
If you see one or more pens that you like, please reply to me at:

Pen #1. ~SOLD~ to D.W.
1924 Parker Duofold Senior in red hard rubber. This one has
the medium size imprint. I polished the clip a bit and did a light
hand polish of the cap and barrel with Novus 2, but I left the few
original scratches. The cap has a cap lip crack that extends about 5
mm above the cap band and curves to the left. The clip has brassing on
the ball. The barrel imprint is worn and very light, but it is all
legible. I wanted to leave the original accumulation of light
scratches on the pen and light discoloration of the cap and blind cap.
It gives the pen character of age and a flavor that would otherwise be
lost. The cap band has micro scratches but no brassing. The nib in the
pen is a very smooth writing stubbish medium nib. It has a
spear/Christmas tree style feed. If the nib had been in a Duofold Jr.,
I would have kept it! I am pricing this pen lower than if it had not
had a crack in the cap.
~SOLD~ to D.W. $250.00 shipping with insurance included in the U.S. Foreign
shipping see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

2. ~SOLD~ to E.D.
c. 1929 Parker Streamline Duofold Junior fountain pen in black. The
clip has a speck of brassing starting on either side of the ball. The
barrel imprint is light and the right side "in U.S.A. has been
obliterated by the cap being posted. The spear feed is correct, but
someone replaced the nib with a Vacumatic. The nib is a smooth writing
Extra Fine 14K arrow. Capped the pen measures 4 1/2 inches or 11.4 cm.
Overall it is a nice looking Jr. and lays down a nice wet line.
~SOLD~ to E.D. $145.00 shipping with insurance included in the U.S. Foreign
shipping see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

the gold filled trim and the clip has the original blue paint in the
diamond. The right side of the barrel imprint is light from the cap
being posted. The barrel clarity is very good with only light
ambering. The nib is a very smooth writing Extra Fine 14K arrow.
Capped the pen measures 5 1/16 inches or 12.8 cm.
~SOLD~ to B.H. $150.00 shipping with insurance included in the U.S. Foreign

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, which is $24.75 to most countries,
except Canada, which is less. I can also ship to other countries by
by Express International Mail, if you request it, but it is costly.
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!
