Parker Duofold Senior RHR Fountain Pen 1922. 14C F Flex Nib. Just serviced with New Ink Sac. Works and writes as when new. Pen has zero Cracks etc. Made in USA between 1922 and 1924 in this exact form. This fabulous RARE pen is made of RHR (Red Hard Rubber). From 1925 they made these from Permanite (early Plastic). Although first introduced in 1921 those early Red Duofold examples have no Cap Ring Bands and GIANT Imprints. After 1922 the added Ring Band to cap and made the Imprints slightly smaller. The 1922 to 1924 Barrel imprint is still almost TWICE as big as the 1925 onwards imprint. In the beginning ONLY Red was available on the Duofold model. Not until 1923 did they introduce a Black version. The pen itself is in superb condition for 100 years old. The JUMBO barrel imprints are still a little worn but still fully readable. Rare to find with visible imprints at all let alone this good. The Clip and Ring Band are Yellow Gold plated and also superb with only the lightest of patina on the Ring band high points as you would expect of this age. Again rare to find such clean Gold Trim on one of these. The pen has no Cracks, Splits or Repairs etc. Overall once in the hand to the naked eye looks amazing for 100 year old. Always looked after and never abused. Of course the real Jewel in the Crown with this beautiful rare pen has to be that wonderful 14K F Semi Flex Nib. A true JOY to use. Writes with a Fine line that has Extra Fine line side stroke at normal pressure. Very elegant writer full of personality. Perfect for everyday use. However, this RARE Nib also offers even more line width variation on the down stroke when varying levels of pressure is applied. It can flex from Fine to Broad. ULTRA Rare to find a USA Parker Duofold nib with ANY flex at this time. MOST are FIRM rigid. The flex is also user friendly in that it is not Soft, loose or twitchy. Only flexes upon user command never by itself. Come s ready to write just add your favourite colour bottled ink… Perfect as a gift or treat yourself to a wonderful collectible fountain pen that can be used and enjoyed daily..
