COMMENTS: And here is a very early pen for the serious Parker collector … Parker eyedropper with tapered cap. Smooth black hard rubber with alternate slabs of abalone and mother of pearl with two ornamental gold bands on the barrel. Fitted with a Lucky Curve “J-shaped” feed, and a 14K Parker Lucky Curve #3 wet noodle nib that writes a triple extra fine to double broad line. This nib is capable of some of the thinnest hairlines I have ever seen produced by a fountain pen or dip nib. It also has the highest degree of responsiveness (snap-back) found in any nib. It is a fairly forgiving nib for being so flexible and so thin. It also allows to write as fast as you can write when no pressure is applied to the nib. This nib is ultra rare and perhaps one of the best flexible nibs I have ever seen and written with. Hard rubber has minimal discoloration, but virtually irrelevant for a highly collectible pen that is 115+ years old. I have elected to leave this pen in its original condition and not to get it professionally reblackened. No model number imprinted on the end of the barrel. Eyedropper filler. Made in USA circa 1896.
