1941 Parker Vacumatic Senior Maxima Fountain Pen - AZURE BLUE

Vintage: 1941

Make: Parker

Model: Vacumatic Senior Maxima

Color: Azure Blue Pearl

Materials: celluloid with gold-plated trim

Filling System: Vacumatic (metal Speedline filler) restored with new diaphragm and ready to write

Length: 5 1/4" capped

Nib: 14k two-tone Vac Maxima Arrow nib lays down a smooth and consistent F line

Condition: Superb with excellent barrel transparency. Trim has no brassing and no other noteworthy blemishes to it or the celluloid. Nib is pristine with no plating wear. The only notable flaw is an area near the top of the cap on each side of the clip where the blue striations aren’t quite as vibrant - probably caused by the outgassing of the hard rubber inner cap. Canadian manufacturer imprint with ‘1’ date code on the barrel is deep and fully legible with just some weakening to the “PAT’D” abbreviation.

Details: Oversized model made in Canada (as marked on nib and barrel). Azure Blue was the scarcest Maxima color.
