1930-1939Price:
$125.00Whether you are filling in a museum worthy collection or stepping up your pencil game at the office, we think you will love this burgundy Parker "Vacumatic" pencil. It does not appear that Parker actually called the pencils Vacumatics, but they were designed to match the Vacumatic pens. We believe this near-mint condition pencil to be an oversized model from 1937. Aside from a little mark under the imprint, it looks close to perfect. Included is the original spare lead cartridge with a hardened eraser under the tail cap. In excellent working order with spare 1.1mm leads. Burgundy is among the rarest colors for this pencil, and Parker reported way fewer sales of these pencils compared to the pens. 12.7cm.

$999.99SOLD!Behold this likely once-in-a-lifetime vintage pen. New Old Stock Parker Vacumatic Maxima fountain pens complete with their original price sticker don't come along very often. Our "golden pearl" stunner has seen minimal if any use. Click the headline for a close-up. You can easily see through the pale-green-yellow barrel with factory fresh clarity. It has a working diaphragm, but we aren't sure who would use such a magnificent museum piece. No cracks, scratches or noteworthy wear for a pen made in 1939. Its aluminum shows a touch of wear. The double jewels are golden pearl. The sticker says this is a medium point nib, and you can see the 14k gold nib still retains almost all of its original two-tone plating. We didn't dip this one, though someone might have in the past 85 years. 13.6cm capped.

$75.00We love that moment when we pour cream into our coffee and watch it swirl about until it is fully integrated with the rich, dark nectar of the morning.

The gunmetal trim looks nice, plus it comes with a box. If you love smooth-writing broad-point steel nibs, you are going to love our juicy friend on this preowned pen.

$99.99SOLD!Seemingly borrowing a touch of the Visconti Devina design, the Levenger Facet fountain pen has a lovely blue facetted twist. Light blue streaks shoot through the midnight blue cap and barrel like a comet. You fill this pen with an included converter or standard international cartridges. Click the headline for close-ups. We find the two-tone 18k gold nib looks a little messed up on its top side, but it still writes a really smooth broad line. It has a few hard starts on certain angles, but not all. It is lighter weight than it looks to us. Nice wider grip for all-day writing. 14cm capped.

SFPrice:
$99.99Surviving World War II in England was no easy task, but this Conway Stewart No. 286 seemed to manage. We restored it with a new ink sac and manage to blacken the black hard rubber cap topper and section a little. They still show a little chocolate hazing, but we knocked it down a little. The trim is mostly brassed, showing little of the gold plating, but let's see how much gold-plating you retain during the blitz. ;) Click the headline for close ups. Be careful with the tab at the end of the lever as you lift it. The lever is very snug in the slot. Slowly and gently lift it up. The tab bends too easily to last forever. The 14k gold nib is a little wavy but it writes well. It flexes from fine to about 1mm. The vintage pen is 12.6cm capped.
