The Story
In 1988 the Parker Duofold Centennial was launched to celebrate one hundred years of writing instrument manufacture by Parker. With design cues from the Parker Duofold pens of the 1920s, allied with technologies of the present, the Parker Duofold Centennial and Parker Duofold International pens are timeless classics of outstanding quality and performance.
A first generation flat top Parker Duofold Centennial, in stunning black acrylic with 23k gold plating and trim. A superb example, never inked with a smooth medium nib and deluxe Parker ink converter installed.
Imperfections
There are no imperfections to note, no chips cracks or engravings, a near perfect example. Some very minor surface wear (very minor indeed, evidence of handling etc) otherwise perfect.
Writing Style
The pen carries an 18k medium nib which writes a smooth medium line with good ink flow, a real joy to write with
