Condition:
This early 1920's (1922 - 1925) Parker Duofold Junior is made from red hard rubber and has the raised gold filled cap band. The pen is in very nice condition with a small lip crack on the cap and no personalization. The barrel and cap have some light surface scratches, a few small marks and a hint of cap wear. The barrel imprint is clear and readable, as shown. The raised gold-filled cap band is bright and clean. The clip is firm with clear stamping, and just a hint of wear. The blind cap is in good condition and fits securely. The pen has been fully disassembled, cleaned, a new ink sac installed, water and ink tested. The pen fills nicely and wrote smoothly with the lovely Parker Duofold nib. A photo of the ink test is included for reference.
