    It looks like a Newhaven Parker Victory with a replacement warranted nib. Quite a nice stub nib too. It should have an arrow clip.

    It does look like a Parker Victory, and on the barrel it seems to say "Parker Victory Made in England." Shame about the nib and the clip.

    All cleaned up now It writes nicely with some flex too but a bit too big for my style. I’ll have to keep and eye out for a clip

    I think you might just need to find the right length in a Duofold arrow clip, but I'm not 100% sure of that.

    I think the Parker Duofold Junior clip is the same.

    As stated, wrong nib, but I would personally be ok with that beautiful stub.

    Can we see a writing sample please.
