Parker Vacumatics And Duofolds
|
The Parker Vacumatic is probably the most well known
collectible fountain pen. They're very pretty, work well, hold a decent amount of ink, and let you see
when the ink supply is getting low. The down side is that they're tricky to service. I disassembled these
pens, replaced the diaphragm (if needed), and cleaned the inside of the barrel as completely as possible.
These are guaranteed to work, and if there are problems, I'll fix them. I love Vacs, have collected quite
a few (second only to Moore pens), and like fixing them up. .

Parker Green Pearl - Canada 1950
|
Vacs were made for longer in Canada than in the US. The light cap rings on this
one aren't perfectly parallel. Otherwise, it's a nice fine nib.
