Description: This is a restored vintage Black Parker Vacumatic Major from 1946, first quarter, in excellent condition, ready to write and with a smooth nib. Please see the photos and read the full description below. The pen has been fully serviced. It was disassembled, the nib and feed were ultrasonically cleaned and a new, properly sized, diaphragm was fitted. The pen was manually and lightly polished after covering the imprints and metal parts. After assembling, the pen was inspected, tested and the nib was adjusted. It writes nicely, with good flow and should be ready to write for many years. Nib: Gold 14 K nib, it writes a smooth fine line (please, see the writing sample in the last photo; the squares are 5mm X 5mm).Size: 5 in (about 12.7 cm).Filling system: Vacumatic filler with a new, properly sized diaphragm. It fills very well. Body and Cap: The celluloid is very clean, and there are NO cracks, gouges or deep scratches. There are micro-scratches and there may be light scratches compatible with use and the age.Trim: the trim is excellent and there is no brassing. There are, however, a few small marks on the top of the clip (around the jewel), please see the 8th photo.Jewell: Excellent condition.Imprint: the barrel imprint is excellent. The date code is 6 with three dots.Clarity: outstanding.Personal engravings: NONE. Feel free to ask any questions. Shipping CONUS only. This auction is for the pen only.
