as a result of a happy meeting among local pen lovers that we held today, i am now in possession of a 1926 jade duofold senior, the only blemish of which is a cap that's lost a portion of its lip below the single band. if you have any spare caps available, i'd be very interested in it (i need just the cap itself with the single band; my clip's okay, but if you're selling the cap as a whole unit, that'd be okay, too.) no problem if the cap is discolored; my barrel's also discolored, anyway (rather nicely and evenly, i must say).

if you have this part, please send me a quote (and a picture, if you can) by PM or by email to me at jdalisay@mac.com, including your asking price plus shipping to virginia, zip 20121, many thanks!

(please take note that this is for the SENIOR jade-green duofold, and that this is the earlier, single-banded, pre-streamlined version, thanks!)

there's a link there to the pictures as well

Nice pen collection from everyone. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think this is the first pen meet in Manila Philippines. This should be an official pen meet in the making.

Congrats!

a much smaller number of collectors (just about four of us) had a meeting about a year ago--so things are looking up!

anybody have one?
