Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Parker Vacumatic Major
Manufacturer and Year Parker - 1943 (barrel and nib are marked)
Length 5-1/16"
Filling System Vacumatic filling system. We've fully restored it and it's working very well.
Color Golden pearl with gold plated trim and the blue diamond clip. Black cap jewel and a "jeweler's" or "stacked coins" band -- a 1/8" cap band with a horizontal pattern and a cartouche designed to be engraved.
Nib EXTRA FINE gold nib in good condition.
Condition Very nice condition with no cracks or chips. The barrel is discolored to a more greyish brown rather than the golden color of the cap and blind cap, probably from exposure to ink, though the clarity is very good. Otherwise the pen has some light scratching from end to, and a few light tooth marks on the blind cap. There are some tiny spots of plating wear on the clip, but generally the trim is looking nice. It's a handsome pen in a classic design. It's still looking good and working very well.
