Description from Nathaniel

We like to consider the Parker Duofold (Vac) as the second generation of the famed Parker Duofold. These received a complete art-deco overhaul after the "Big Red" era. Our blue-and-grey model is fully restored with a new diaphragm in its Vacumatic filling system. You will see a third-quarter 1945 date code in its crisp imprint. The whole vintage pen is very crisp for 80 years old.  No cracks or significant wear. Best of all, it comes with a 14k gold "Victory" nib. You will write a nice fine line with a touch of feedback. Another great element of the pen is its very clear barrel. It is tinged yellow-green. Our Parker Duofold (Vac) is the large model measuring 13.6cm capped.
