The photos above are of the actual pen we are offering for sale here
This is an English Parker Duofold fountain pen in burgundy with gold-filled trim and dates from around 1968
This is a transitional design with the original Duofold open traditional #10 14k gold medium nib but with screw on 45 style cap/clip.
Condition wise, this has some storage marks but shows no signs of having been used, with the fountain pen still having the remains of the original factory chalk marks on barrel indicating "Duofold M" - the model and the nib width
The fountain pen fills from an ink bottle and does not take cartridges. This pen has the traditional aerometric filling system
See similar examples in Lambrou FPW p197. Our records show that we had the smaller Slimfold version of this transitional design in 2022, but we apparently haven't had an example of this larger size before
Condition A2/1m - (Ref 12997)

We have fully serviced this pen which includes disassembling the pen, ultrasonically cleaning all the parts and fitting a new ink sac. We then reassemble the pen, check ink flow and the smoothness of the nib. We also check and adjust the tightness and positioning of the clip.
