Condition
|
The barrel and nib look great and are in excellent working condition. The body has virtually no wear. The cap has a dent or two, but the significant issue is the split in the gold filled outer cap that runs thru the Parker imprint. You can see it clearly in the photos. (Demi caps are a little hard to find, and if we'd had a better one we would have put it on this lovely pen.) The cap still stays on properly. We restored the vacumatic filling system and it works perfectly. |
