Rare 1996 Parker Duofold International in red - Fine nib

Regular price £475.00

This is quite a rare pen with post 1996 design features but in a pre 1996 colour!

In 1996 Parker revised the Duofold range changing a number of design features and its colour range

This pen features all the 1996 revisions but is in red - a colour from the 1988-95 range but which did not feature in the 1996 colour range. So this pen has the tapered cap tassie; the slightly domed Duofold banner cap decal; two thick cap bands; a single barrel band and a slightly longer barrel balanced with a shorter barrel blind cap

This takes standard modern Parker cartridges or a Parker converter for filling from an ink bottle

Condition wise, this has seen little use and is in excellent overall shape.  It is fitted with a fine 18k gold bi-colour nib with the Duofold banner imprint which is correct for a post 1996 pen

Condition B/1f - (Ref 12647)

The International is a slightly smaller diameter pen than the Centennial 

We have fully serviced this pen which includes disassembling the pen and ultrasonically cleaning all the parts.  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. 

This pen comes with our normal 12 month warranty.  We keep a detailed record of each customer's purchases so if you need to call us, we will have all the information here to answer any query
