Product Description

Product Name Duofold, Junior, streamlined version.
Manufacturer and Year Parker, made in USA -- circa 1929 (it has a 1929 style imprint, that was the first year of the streamlined pens).
Length Just over 4-3/4" inches
Filling System Button filler. We've restored it with a new sac and it's working very well.
Color Mandarin Yellow brightly colored body and cap with gold filled trim and two thin cap bands.
Nib FINE gold Parker Duofold Pen nib is quite large and smooth with a smidge of give. There is a crack that runs down from the "U" in "USA" and which does not affect writing.
Condition Very nice condition, a step up from user grade. There are a few dark colored cracks in the cap lip. The top of the clip has brassing. There's some brassing on one of the cap rings. No cracks or chips, dings or dents, personalization or plating wear. The nib and feed each have a crack in them. Both cracks are far from the tip and will not affect how they write. One of the cap rings and the button are a little loose. The imprint is slightly worn, but fully readable. The pen is fully restored and working well.
