“Ribbon Pen” eyedropper-fill straight holder in gold-filled. Not in any Parker Catalog, we believe these were made by custom order only. There is one in the Parker archives. High relief pattern of bows, ribbons and flowers. An exquisite pen! #3 Parker Lucky Curve “Lazy S” nib. Curved “Lucky Curve” feed. Indicia engraved in Script either “WHJ” or “WGF”. A tad of brassing at the cap lip and the bottom edge of the posting knob. There are a few pinpoint impressions on the posting knob, while the engraved imprint has no wear at all. Otherwise near mint.
Lucens PIF Medium in Green Pearl Marble. Rare, first-year model with black blind cap and inner cap (rather than matching in color). Wide “Greek Key” cap band bordered by two narrow bands. Visualated barrel. Rollerball clip. Medium, TRIPLE-FLEXIBLE nib. A tad of wear here and there, but very close to near mint.
12 Safety Eyedropper-fill in Black Hard Rubber. The largest safety pen made by Montblanc! One of the “Holy Grails” for Montblanc collectors. Outstanding condition with crisp knurling, fully legible cap and barrel imprints. Cap also has the “Stoffhaus” (Montblanc boutique at the time) imprint. Shown open. The barrel has an owner’s imprint “Walter Ramm.” The identical pen, less the owner imprint, sold in the last Catalog for $12,000. Excellent+
51 Vacumatic-fill in Black with two-toned pink and yellow 14K “Empire State” cap (sometimes called “Icicle”). Fine point. Just the slightest micro-scratch to the cap where the clip must have moved, otherwise near mint++
T111 “Toledo” PIF. One of the rarest and most sought of the vintage Pelikans. The barrel design is acid etched, gold plate is added, and parts of the design are then hand-engraved. Proper cap with unique chased GF bands and a hand engraved Pelikan design in the clip. Medium, extra-flexible nib. Near mint in original box (box a bit threadbare).
412SF Sleeve-filler in BHR with Sterling Silver Filigree Overlay. Before settling on the lever, Waterman experimented with several different filling systems, including the “Pump-filler,” “Coin-filler, “and the “Sleeve-filler.” Each was very short lived. In the Sleeve-filler, a sliding sleeve lowers to reveal a thumb operated pressure bar which depressed to evacuate and fill the bladder. Very rare. Not polished (to retain the patina). Fine, extra-flexible, italic nib. Absolutely wonderful condition.
4 size twist-fill in Black Hard Rubber with early sterling silver “Art Nouveau Filigree” overlay (quite beautiful!). To fill, remove the blind cap and manually turn the protruding spindle three revolutions to fully twist the sac (Ingersoll had a similar mechanism on their “Dollar Pen” where a thumb tack on the end of the barrel is turned to twist the sac). Signed “Autofiller” stub, flexible nib. Near mint

Featured - The Parker Duofold
Introduced in 1921, it was Parker's first pen in
a color other than black. It was a very risky decision, especially at a retail
price of $7.00 -- more than twice the price of the average pen! But it turned
out to be instantly popular. The "Big Red" very soon became the symbol of an
educated, successful man.
Parker quickly reduced their line of over 400
different pen models to just about 30. The next 12 years (the Duofold line
was discontinued in 1933) brought the introduction of at least eight different
colors, eight or more different models, plus dozens of desk sets. And this
doesn't include all the additional colors and patterns produced by Parker in
Europe! The array can keep a collector busy for quite some time.
Ž
The first Duofolds were hard rubber and bandless. A band was quickly added (to
help quell cap lip cracks).
Ž
1922 brought the Junior; Deluxe Junior (wide cap band); Deluxe Senior (wide cap
band); and Lady Duofold.
Ž
1924 brought the small pencil with the "spoon clip." 1925 brought the "Big Bro"
pencil.
Ž
The first desk sets were introduced in 1926.
Ž
Jade was added in 1926 and both Lapis Lazuli and Mandarin Yellow were added in
1927.
Ž
1928 brought Black & Pearl Moderne.
Ž
In 1929 the Vest Pocket line was added and the "Straight-sided" Duofold was
modernized as the design was "Streamlined."
Ž
1930 brought Burgundy & Black and Moderne Green & Pearl.
Ž
The last color to be added, Sea Green Pearl, occurred in 1932, and is quite rare
today.
Ž
From 1932 through 1936 Parker produced their "Depression Pens" in colors and
designs we wish had been used for Duofolds.
Ž
1932 brought the world the introduction of the Vacumatic.
Duofold Sr. “Big Red” BF in Red Hard Rubber (much rarer than the later Permanite [plastic] models). GFT. The cap has the raised “Golden Girdle.” Medium, italic nib (italic Duofold nibs are very unusual). There is a posting ridge at the border where the cap meets barrel, some minor surface scratches and some knurling wear on the ends. Still, an incredibly rare pen, very hard to find with no cracks or other major condition issues. Has been filled. Excellent+
Duofold Sr. BF in Black. GFT. Extra-smooth, medium/broad FLEXIBLE nib (Duofold nibs with flex are very rare!). A tad of band brassing, otherwise near mint+

Duofold Jr. BF in Jade. GFT. New-old-stock. Mint with absolutely no barrel or cap ambering. There is no sac in this pen (I will install one if requested). Medium nib.
Duofold Sr. BF in Jade. GFT. A very nice example, with only minor ambering but, compared to the mint Jade Duofolds in the Catalog, will look much worse than it actually is. Less then perfect color is offset by the medium/fine FLEXIBLE nib – Duofold nibs with flex are very rare! Except as mentioned above, near mint
Duofold Jr. BF in Red. GFT. A little clip ball and cap band brassing, otherwise near mint, with perfect deep and crisp barrel imprint. Mounted on the top of the pen is an inlaid enamel Knights of Columbus emblem. It depicts a shield mounted upon the Formée cross. Mounted on the shield are a fasces (a bundle of rods bound together about an ax with the blade projecting) standing vertically and, crossed behind it, an anchor and a dagger or short sword. Extra-smooth, fine nib. Has been filled. Excellent+
Lady Duofold BF Set in Mandarin Yellow. GFT. Pen has a highly unusual owner imprint, “Testimonial to Mrs. Wm. F.

#4 Combination LF Pencil-pen in Green & Bronze. GFT. “Warranted 14K 8" medium/broad, flexible nib (although it is truly not an “8" size nib). A tad of trim edge brassing, otherwise near mint.
#4 Combination LF Pencil-pen in Golden Woodgrain plastic (strikingly beautiful!). GFT Even more unusual is the TWISTED GLASS NIB! Except for the name on the clip (“L Pen Company”) the pen is identical to the Diamond Point, and was no doubt made by them). A tad of clip brassing, otherwise near mint.
“Supra Normal” combination BF pencil-pen in Lapis. Osmia was a German manufacturer of very high quality pens. For a short time during the late 1920's they were owned by Parker (hence all the Parker look-a-like models). The German pen experts tell me that there have only been two Lapis Osmia combinations ever found; this Supra Normal and one larger Supra Extra which is in the collection of a USA based collector specializing in combination pen/pencils. Medium nib. The barrel is imprinted with an owner’s signature “Siassi Montageui.” The color of the pencil celluloid is a shade darker than the rest of the pen, otherwise near mint.

Duplex LF in Jade. GFT. “Duofold Jr.” look-a-like made in the very early years of Aurora, when their design was highly influenced by US pens. In 1927, Aurora introduced the “Duplex” in Red Hard Rubber with black ends (certainly influenced by the “Duofold.” In 1929 the celluloid Duplex was introduced in five versions and five colors. The example here is one of the earliest Aurora celluloid pens made, and it is extremely rare and collectable. Near mint+
