Parker Vacumatic Double Jewelled Junior (Standard Size) (On Ebay)
Here is a Parker Vac Junior in a Standard size. It was probably made in the mid to late 30s. It has lockdown filler, silver/ black flake pattern celluloid, and silver trim. It’s in excellent condition. Maybe some light scratching most of which has buffed right out. Barrel transparency is still excellent. It has an orangish hue (though it looks more orange in the pics because the ink loaded in the pen is orange as well). Trim has minor wear but looks great. Imprints are crisp. Even the lockdown filler looks great. It has a butter smooth F nib that writes a nice 0.4mm wet line. Great writer. The nib also has a slight amount of flex. Great vintage pen.
