Product Description
Type Vintage mechanical pencil, working well.
Product Name Vacumatic Major Mechanical Pencil.
Manufacturer and Year Parker, made in USA -- 1938 (the 8 date code indicates the last quarter of 1938).
Length 5".
Filling System This pencil takes 1.1mm (or "Thick") leads, which it extends via the traditional twist mechanism. It's working well, and we'll include a small pack of leads.
Color Golden Brown Pearl body, cap, and cap jewel with gold plated trim, an art deco arrow clip, and a medium width "chevron" style cap band.
Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dings, or personalization. Light handwear shows on its body, and there's a very minor bend in the cap band. There are very light hints of plating wear on the cap band, and some tiny spots of brassing on the clip. The imprint is fairly distinct and readable, and the pencil is working very well.
