Date: c1960s
Size: Capped - 126mm; posted - 147mm.
A very attractive jet black Slimfold 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 conical black "jewel" and has a washer style arrow pocket clip and narrow "deco" engraved cap band. The barrel unscrews to reveal the Aerometric filler. This is very good with just minor discolouration to the sac guardand the unusual internal ink staining to the Pliglass ink sac. The nib is a shiny Parker No. 5 in 14 carat gold. It is a medium-fine point. The Parker box is made from brown and cream coloured paperboard with the Parker name on the lid. It is in very good condition and includes the original instruction sheet inside.
I have fully serviced this pen. The nib is very smooth and writes with a lovely wet and consistent line. It produces a very nice medium line, and as this nib also has some softness to it you will get some very attractive line variation as you write.
