PARKER DUOFOLD CENTENNIAL FOUNTAIN PEN JADE GREEN
Item History & Price
Large Parker Duofold Centennial, Mark II, Jade Green.This pen was purchased by me in 2014; some of the description and the photographs are by my seller, collector N. Petersen , and I stand behind them. Since purchase, the pen has been primarily stored in my pen chest, and I did not put it into regular rotation. It has not been used much at all.
THIS IS THE LARGER CENTENNIAL SIZE, NOT THE SMALLER INTERNATIONAL.COMES WITH ORIGINAL MANUAL AND WARRANTY CARD, INSI...DE A PRESENTATION BOX, WHICH IS INSIDE A CARDBOARD BOX, both boxes shown in photos. THE PEN MEASURES 5 3/8" INCHES LONG WITH THE CAP ON. IT HAS GOOD HEFT, BUT IS ALSO WELL BALANCED. I PREFER NOT TO POST, BUT IF YOU DO, IT POSTS SECURELY. CLASSIC BLACK AND GOLD DUOFOLD EMBLEM INLAID ON TOP OF THE CAP. THE NIB IS MARKED "BB" ON THE UNDERSIDE, AND THE TOP IS THE BEAUTIFUL TWO-TONE CLASSIC PARKER SPLIT FEATHERED ARROW, INSCRIBED "DUOFOLD" IN A DIAGONAL BANNER, AND BELOW THAT, PARKER 18K, 750 IT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, WITH GOOD FLOW. IT COMES WITH A CONVERTER, WHICH HOLDS A LOT OF INK, AND WILL ALSO ACCEPT CARTRIDGES. A VERY NICE LOOKING AND WORKING PEN WHICH SHOULD MAKE A FINE ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION. This is a very desirable fountain pen for an owner who wishes to create a notable impression.QUOTING FROM an article by Tony Fischier, "Parker Duofold Centennial History" : "in 1996 the complete line was redesigned...The new pens had ... more tapered ends, a shorter 'blind cap' and...the gold rings on the caps (two) , instead of being uneven in width, were now of the same size and thicker.... The new colours included Jade Green, but this finish was discontinued in December 2001". (Accordingly, I would date this pen as circa late '90s.)Quoted shipping is for delivery within CONUS. International buyers are welcome, but will be responsible for any additional shipping cost.
