These Pens Really Suck, but
That’s good, because
a) they are all vacuum fill pens.
b) They have all been recently professionally restored
So, they all fill great, write great.
From Left to right:
1) SOLD Parker red striped Duofold, aka Dusty Red. Senior size (5 3/8 inches capped).Mono color gold nib, which looks like an F. Cap ring and clip are free of brassing, black cap jewel in excellent condition. $125.
2) Another senior, red-striped Duofold, this one has the two-tone nib gold which looks like an F or maybe even an EF. Cap ring and clip are free of brassing, cap jewel is black and in excellent condition. $135.
3) Parker Vacumatic in striated golden brown. This is the Speedline Major at ~5 ¼ inches capped. As the name implies, it has the aluminum “speedline” vacumatic filler. Double jewels are striated to match the pen and cap, and are in excellent condition. Gold nib looks like it’s a medium or possibly a medium/fine. A very nice example of an iconic pen. $195.
4) Parker matching pencil for the golden vacumatic. I do not have any lead that fits it, so I don't know if it works properly, or not.The nose cone has some rough places. It comes with the vacumatic, no cost.
