Parker Gold Filled Lucky Curve – Super Flex – (On Ebay)
This is a gold filled Parker Lucky Curve vest pen. It is in quite good condition. The only real significant cosmetic flaws are two small dings on the barrel (see pics). There is no brassing that I could find. There is some light scratching on the body as is normal from typical use. The 14kt. #2 Lucky Curve nib does have the slightest little wrinkle in one of the tines, but it does not affect the performance of the nib. The pen writes as a smooth XF (0.3mm) that has a nice flex up to 1.7mm. The flex is pretty easy and quite responsive. A great example of Parker’s version of the gold-filled pen.
