Product Description
| Type | Fountain pen |
| Product Name | Parker Vacumatic "Long" Major |
| Manufacturer and Year | Parker Canada - 1944 (The imprint on the barrel is for 1944) |
| Length | 5-3/8" inches (the regular Major is only a little over 5"). |
| Filling System |
Vacumatic plastic plunger filler is in working condition. We restored the filling system and it works quite well. |
| Color | Azure Blue with gold filled trim-- very good visibility thru the body. Black jewel. Blue Diamond clip. The cap band is medium wide, with a chevrons design. |
| Nib | Flexible nib is rather uncommon .... it says Parker Vacumatic. These Canadian vacs are famous for their nibs, we didn't pull the nib so we don't know if it is marked Canada. 14k, fine flexible nib. Writes smoothly with a wet line. Lots of tipping material in evidence. The nib looks like it's barely been used. |

Condition
|
Superior restored condition, near mint. The body is very smooth and largely free from scratches and marks, just signs of light use. The gold filled clip is excellent with no brassing. The tassie and jewel are also excellent. |
