c.1929 Parker Long Junior Streamlined Fountain Pen - STUB

Vintage: c.1929

Make: Parker

Model: Duofold Long Junior

Color: Black

Materials: Permanite (celluloid), black hard rubber, gold-filled trim

Filling System: Button-filler (resacced and guaranteed to fill and write as designed). To fill simply unscrew the blind cap, submerse the nib, and depress the brass button once.

Length: Standard girth and measures 4 3/4” capped and 6” posted. 

Nib: 14k Duofold nib is an uncommon Factory Stub. It lays down a smooth and consistent F line on the down-strokes and XF line on the cross-strokes 

Condition: Near-mint. Gold plated trim is virtually pristine with no brassing or other notable flaws aside from the typical sliver on the clip ball. Surfaces are smooth and lustrous with no deep scratches or other noteworthy blemishes. HR parts are factory black. Manufacturer imprint on barrel is factory deep and fully legible. 

Details: In 1929, presumably in response to Sheaffer's bestselling Balance, the Duofold received a facelift. This so-called "Streamlined" Duofold took on a more streamlined profile.
