Description.

This is a very nice example of the hard-to-find Duofold Baby. It was made in Canada around 1930 for export to Europe, it was probably destined for France because, as well as the usual Parker Imprint, there is also the words "Importe du Canada". The Baby is a rare pen, this is the first I have come across in the last 30 years! It is fitted with a Tassie so it was probably intended as a Ladies or Purse pen.

It uses the reliable button filling mechanism and it has been fully serviced.

The pen is in excellent condition throughout with minor marks and scratches commensurate with use. The gold plating is in good condition and the imprint on the barrel is clear and legible.

The ink sac has been replaced and the pen is in full working order.

The 14ct gold nib writes smoothly with a lovely Medium Line and it has a soft flex to it..

Condition: Grade A
