new batch

got an awesome group of old parkers to fix up today.  i am excited to get started on these.

011 sheaffer jr flat top

clean imprints, good color, plenty of tipping, no plating loss i noticed. the band is a little loose.  the only thing that seems unusual about it is that the lever is a silver trim and the cap is a gold trim. 

010 conklin ring top

the hard rubber has oxidized slightly to a very dark brown that is near its original black color.  the chasing and imprints are crisp.  i believe it is missing a second gold plated jump ring at the top.  the nib is a moore pen nib

009 watermans 52 V

crack on cap, medium dark brown oxidization to the hard rubber.  good imprints and chasing.

008 watermans 32A V

green celluloid with red stripes.

007 watermans 52 1/2 v ring top

this is a fairly early pen for the 52 designation as it lacks the second waterman mark on the butt of the pen.  the hard rubber has oxidized to a medium dark brown.  cap is cracked.  chasing is fairly worn.

006 watermans 94

beautiful flexible nib.  green pearled celluloid with red flecks.  chip missing out of body.  some plating wear

the personalization is heavily worn but i believe the body is inscribed
"THE MORMON TABERNACLE
MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN"

this nib has very little tipping and is a little scratchy but the flex is incredibly responsive.
