Ever wanted to try the vintage pencil writing experience. The second generation Parker Duofold remains an art deco beauty. Our vintage pencil still works, but it is heavily brassed and shows some wear. Twist the tail cap to advance the .9mm lead. You have to push the lead back in by hand if you want to retract it. Pull off the tail cap to reveal a hardened original eraser. Under the eraser is a spare lead. 11.9cm.
