Description from the seller
Parker Duofold Junior "Lapis Lazuli" – Made in Canada – Circa 1930
Exquisite Parker Duofold fountain pen, Junior model, manufactured in Toronto, Canada, in the late 1920s or early 1930s. This specimen stands out for its iconic Lapis Lazuli celluloid finish (blue marbled with white specks), one of the colors most sought after by collectors of the "Big Red" era.
Details of the item:
• Body and Cap: Deep blue celluloid with a very well-preserved veined pattern. Displays the original factory imprint on the body, clearly legible: "Geo. S. Parker Duofold Jr. Fountain Pen - Toronto - Canada".
• Nib: Original 14K gold nib with the inscription "Parker Lucky Curve Pen 2".
• Ornamentation: Gold-plated ball clip with the Parker mark engraved and double band on the cap (Double Band).
• Filling system: Button filler (needs servicing to ensure it operates properly given its age).
• Condition: In good vintage-preservation condition. Exhibits a natural patina on the gold plating and light signs of use consistent with its age, which guarantees its authenticity and character.
An indispensable piece for any enthusiast of classic American fountain pens from the Golden Age.
Shipped carefully packaged in a generic case with tracking number and insurance.
