Hi all,
If you see a pen here that you would like to purchase, please let me
know that you saw it on FPGeeks!
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. 1941 Parker Vacumatic Jr. Shadow Wave in golden brown. It has some
brassing on the top cap band and the feather part of the clip, also on
the high edges of the tassi and clip ring. It has a name imprinted on
the barrel, W.A. Stegeman. The nib is a smooth writing Fine 14K,
it is almost a medium. This is a good pen with a nice polish, but I would
consider it a user grade pen. I am lowering the price down a bit, from
what I have on the price sticker.
Price reduced to $145.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

2. circa 1930 Mabie Todd Swallow flat top fountain pen in cream and
black. There is some typical brassing across the ball on the clip and
the fill lever has a little bit of pitting, but is much, much better
than average. The barrel has some mild discoloration. This pen was
made in England. The nib is a Flexible Extra Fine, that takes moderate
pressure to spread the tines. It has a tendency to make railroad
tracks, if you apply too much pressure. The nib is marked marked M.T.
& Co. - 14 Ct. This is a long slender pen, capped it measures 5 3/16
inches or 13.1 cm.
Price reduced to $125.00 shipping included in the U.S. Foreign shipping
see "Rules, Shipping, Etc." below.

3. ~SOLD~ to E.D.
circa 1923 Parker Duofold Senior fountain pen in red hard
rubber. This one has a medium size Duofold barrel imprint. The imprint
is very worn. It has about a 4 millimeter scratch above the cap band
on the back side. There are a few little light scratches here and
there. The only brassing on the trim is on across the ball of the clip.
The milling on the cap end and blind cap is deep and not heavily worn.
I did a light hand polish on the pen with Novus 2 and it looks great.
Note - do not use Novus #1 or #3 on hard rubber pens, those two
polishes will discolor the hard rubber. The nib is smooth writing and
about a fat Fine or narrow Medium. It has a little bit of flex, but
not much. Capped the pen measures 5 1/2 inches or 14 cm.
~SOLD~ to E.D. $350.00 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, 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!
