All the pens are piston-fill, new-old-stock, mint and unused. The box has some signs of age here and there. Black wood (ebony?). As you can imagine, these sets are awfully scarce, especially with mint pens. I'm told that the set was also produced with eight rather than nine pens, and this nine-pen version (which includes the "Special" pen) is the rarer of the two sets. $2400

Top-of-the-line high quality model, sporting an 18K Rolled-gold (gold-filled) wide fretted "Greek Key" cap band inside two narrow bands. Unusual filling mechanism; removing the Parker-like blind cap reveals a knurled black knob which is turned 1/4" to press the pressure bar against the bladder. Signed "The King 585 3" medium, triple-flexible nib. An outstanding pen. A tad of brassing to the clip ball and the very back of the lower narrow cap band, otherwise near mint+ $ 700

71 Parker 1923 Duofold Sr. "Big Red" set in Red Hard Rubber (much rarer than the later plastic models). GFT. Rare model, only manufactured for one year – the second year of production -- and has the "medium" size barrel imprint (the 1922 imprint was larger while the 1924 imprint was smaller – Parker finally settled on the smaller imprint). The matching pencil has the "Big Bro" imprint. The pen imprint is light, but probably not worn as the entire imprint is consistently light (wear would be inconsistent in different parts of the imprint). Fine point. Near mint $ 700
72 Parker 1923 Pencil for above set. Set
73 Parker 1923 Duofold Sr. BF in Black Hard Rubber (much rarer than the later plastic models). GFT.

75 Parker 1926 Pastel BF ring-top in Coral (rare color). Medium, flexible nib (flexible Parker nibs are hard to find!). A tad of brassing to the lower edge of the cap band, and a bit of darkening to the bottom ½" of the barrel (all reflected in the price). Excellent. $ 75
