The Parker Junior Duofold, despite the name, is not a small pen by any means.  At 15.8 cm., with the cap posted for use it is an extremely long and elegant pen, significantly longer than the standard Duofold.  The pen was made in the U.K. at the Parker Newhaven factory.

Finished in blue, with Gold filled clip and decorated cap band, this is a fine example.  The body and cap have an excellent surface and the Gold trim is in good order. The barrel is stamped as a Parker Junior Duofold.  The cap, which is a smooth screw fit, tightens with two and a quarter turns and carries a blue end 'jewel'.  

The pen has been fully serviced and tested.  The 'aerometric' squeeze bar filler works perfectly and is easy to use.  The 14 Ct, Gold Parker no.10 nib is straight and well aligned with a clear imprint.  It delivers a smooth, broad to medium line and has a very pleasing 'soft' feel.

At the moment the Parker Junior Duofold is much underrated but that is sure to change, particularly for a pen in such fine condition.  It is not possible to identify a new pen with a Gold nib and of this quality and 'breeding' at anywhere near the price!
