PA3415 Parker Duofold Junior, boxed. (Soft Fine)

Date: c1950s

Size: Capped - 135mm; posted - 157mm.

A very attractive burgundy red Junior Duofold in excellent condition.  There are no splits, cracks or chips and not even any noticeable scratches on either barrel or cap.  All trim is rolled gold and again has no damage.  The cap is topped with a burgundy coloured "jewel" which holds on the rolled gold Parker arrow pocket clip.   Below this is a "deco" engraved cap band.  The barrel unscrews to reveal the Aerometric filler.  This is also in excellent condition - the original pliglass ink sac has the usual internal ink staining and is in a good, serviceable condition, and probably will be for many years to come.  The nib is a shiny Parker No. 10 in 14 carat gold.  It is a fine point.  The paperboard Parker box is also in nice condition.  No major problems, just a couple of small age sports to the outside.  Inside, is a grey satin pad.     

I have fully serviced this pen.  The nib is very smooth and writes with a lovely wet and consistent fine width line.  The nib on this pen is quite soft - it will give a little understated line width variation as you write.
