Pen Hunting 12-8-17

[JotterAddict62]

Greetings

On Friday I shopped at a farm auction seeing they had listed a few Parkers to be had.

Well the Jotters [ 6-10 ] sold for $40 and the 3rd Gen Vac blue major at $85 [ really ] unrestored.

I was not going to pay that much [ I had one in my pocket ] so I continue with the hunt in three

shops for the day and found this.

I will always come back with something.

Good hunting next time.

Ken,

 

Is the base "bakelite" or metal? Whatever it is, it looks awesome!

that angular design on the base is shouting art deco - late 1930s early 1940s possibly - does the rest of this piece look to have that sort of age?

Very good find by the way.

To your question, yes.

I did notice on the bottom of the lighter stamped on one of the parts [ EVANS Rolled Rearing ]

The socket will fit a Duofold JR. The lighter will need an adjustment to make the striker work.
