AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The pen is in very good overall condition, maintaining both the structural integrity and the original aesthetic of the model. The celluloid features a vibrant pattern in gold and black tones, with deep shine and good uniformity. No cracks, fissures, or deformations are visible; it only shows slight signs of normal use for its age.
The cap maintains a secure and proper fit. The clip, with the engraving 'PARKER' clearly defined, retains alignment and functionality, showing minimal wear on the chrome finish. The metal rings exhibit uniform superficial aging, with no structural losses or deformations.
The Parker gold nib is in excellent condition, with clear engravings, no deformation of the gavilanes, and a well-preserved writing point. The original feed maintains its defined channels and a generally clean appearance.
The loading system shows an intact exterior, with the rear button and mechanism visually in good condition. The engraving 'PARKER DUOFOLD – Made in U.S.A.' on the barrel is legible and confirms the authenticity of the model.
Overall, it is a very well-preserved specimen, with bright celluloid, complete ornaments, potentially solid writing, and an originality level appropriate for a collectible piece.
It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.
Good auction!
