Overview
A restored Parker Victory from the early 1940's, carrying a stub nib with a touch of flex to it. MK1 Parker Victories were made in the Newhaven factory after Parker acquired the Valentine Pen Company in 1940.
It is often commented that Parker Victories were named to celebrate Victory in world war II but this claim has never been substantiated. Nevertheless these are lovely collectable pens and their classic design is timeless.

Imperfections
There are no major imperfections to note, no chips cracks or engravings
The pen shows its age in some areas, the rubber top to the cap is a touch faded and the imprints are legible, but not as crisp as perhaps they once were. Overall though a very nice clean example.
Writing Style & Nib Appraisal
The nib is a 14k Parker Newhaven nib, a medium 'flex stub' which writes with a fine line on the horizontal and a medium / broad line on the downstroke.
