Description from the seller
A0000004266
Article: POST-WWII PARKER DUOFOLD fountain pen, body and cap in polished black resin, gold arrow clip with fluted head, wide gold band at the base of the cap with alternating chevron engraving, blind rounded section (pressurized loading under the blind section), imprint "PARKER DUOFOLD" on the barrel and an open gold nib engraved "PARKER DUOFOLD 14K PEN".
Length: 13.3 cm.
Diameter: 1.2 cm.
Nib: F (Fine), 14-karat gold engraved nib "PARKER DUOFOLD 14K PEN", with a comb feed.
Period: Late 1940s – early 1950s.
Materials: Cap and barrel in high-gloss black resin; black section with the olive tint this material takes with age; arrow clip and wide cap band in gold finish, with the series chevron engraving; 14-karat gold nib with comb feed. Loading by push-bar under the screw-threaded blind section, not dismantled for review.
Condition: Good, very presentable for its age; the black retains mirror shine on both cap and barrel, with no cracks or deformations, showing wear marks and fine micro-scratches seen only up close; the barrel imprint remains legible though softened by polishing; the clip gold and cap band retain color with minor rubbing and the chevron engraving intact; nib complete, well aligned and without bends. Since this is a 1940s-50s push-bar filler, it will normally need a new sac: a service before use with ink is advisable.
Accessories: Only the loose piece; no box or papers visible in the photos.
