| COMMENTS: An early 1920's Black Hard Rubber Duofold. Imprint either the next to largest or largest (suspect "nex to"). Good color, clean trim and nib. Imprint not perfect but not bad, the Lucky Curve banner is intact but lost in the photo shadow. Nice semi-flex nib. | |||

| COMMENTS: A 1928-ish Lucky Curve (essentially a sub-Duofold) long slender pen with smooth flex (moderate, not noodle) nib. The lined chasing is a later pattern, one i'd vaguely believed associated with the "DQ" label, though this barrel imprint is simple Lucky Curve (no DQ). Very clean trim. Decent imprint. Mild oliving of the hard robber with good gloss. | |||

| COMMENTS: A classic sub-Duofold-line pen by Parker, recently given tribute via the modern True Blue Duofold. This one is a decent but hardly stellar example. Very clean cap. Some barrel ambering. Imprint fully legible though not razor sharp. One flea-bite to the plastic below the imprint. Killer nib, no joke. | |||

| COMMENTS:
Essentially a one-year model, the 1939 Duofold marked the reappearance
of that name in Parker's lineup, following a several year absence. It
slotted between the Deluxe and Royal Challengers in price point,
and bears a similar shape to those models. No Brassing, couple light marks on cap-band. Deep manufacturer's imprint. Nice "visometer" gripping section clarity. Neat nib with some flex (not wet noodle) that lets it switch from baseline XF-ish to full medium on downstroke, with application of pressure. Cap is bright, barrel has some brighter and darker regions, well shown in the two pictures, above. |

| COMMENTS: Essentially one year model 1939- early 1940. Toothbrush Duofold comes in four colors, counting Black. Black is the least common color, but of course is a bit less popular than the other colors, so tends to underprice those. This one is very clean with smooth semi-flex nib. This is the larger size. | |||
