Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Parker Vacumatic ... the pattern is called "Shadow Wave" and this particular model is the larger of the two sizes made though it was called a "Junior". (The smallest size was called the Juniorette.)
Manufacturer and Year Parker USA - 1939 (The imprint on the barrel is very clear 9 with one dot, and the Speedline filler points to it being from the late 1938 or early 1939 when they changed from Lockdown fillers to Speedline. The "star clip" also debuted in 1938 but was only used for a year or two before it was replaced by the Blue Diamond clip.)
Length Just a hair over 5"
Filling System Vacumatic, with the Speedline filler, is in excellent working condition. Restored here at PSP, we guarantee the filling system for a year from the date of purchase.
Color Brown "Shadow Wave" lengthwise striped with gold trim. Black blind cap (correct for this model) and jewels. Star Clip.
Nib FINE 14k nib. Excellent tipping material.
Condition Excellent + condition. This is a standard size pen in a gorgeous color pattern and with a classic design. The barrel has faint marks caused by the cap lip in capping. The cap has light scratching. The cap bands and clip have plating wear. The black jewels look good. Barrel clarity is excellent. The imprints are very clear.
