PA3617 Parker Duofold Junior. (Fine)

Date: c1950s

Size: Length - 135mm capped; 160mm posted.

A super glossy midnight blue Duofold Junior in excellent condition.  There are no noticeable scratches to either barrel or cap, and all the rolled gold trim is in excellent, unbrassed condition. I really can't find any damage on this pen at all.  The Parker arrow pocket clip and deco engraved cap band are both rolled gold.  The blue conical ended cap top jewel is glossy and undamaged.  The barrel bears a lovely crisp but typically shallow imprint.  Very unusually there is the original factory-applied chalk mark to the side of the barrel, another indication that this pen has seen little use. The barrel unscrews to reveal the Aerometric filling system.  The brushed steel protector is in excellent condition.  The original pli-glass ink sac has only very light internal ink staining, perhaps indicating that this pen has not seen a lot of use over the years. The Parker No. 10 14 carat gold nib is in a fine point.  

I have fully serviced this pen.  The pen writes very smoothly with a lovely wet, consistent and fine width line.
