Description:
Parker Duofold- maroon barrel, gold cap and clip with engraved Parker emblem, hooded nib; a relatively tiny bit of gold that was almost entirely concealed within the streamlined gripping section, or shell. The hooded nib was an essential part of the pen’s design, as the shell also concealed a huge secondary ink reservoir to prevent the pen from drying out during use.
The Duofold is the pen that actually made the Parker Company one of the greatest pen-manufacturers of the world.
