Pre-Owned Pens

As we celebrate the 78th anniversary of the end of World War II, we list this limited edition Parker Duofold MacArthur Centennial fountain pen that celebrated the 50th anniversary of the end of WWII. One of only 1,945 pens, the Parker Duofold was used in this anniversary pen in part because Gen. Douglas MacArthur signed the Japanese surrender documents with his wife's Parker Duofold Jr. in the same color! Our pen is New Old Stock and never used. It comes complete with its original boxes and papers. Should you chose to write with it, it comes with its original Parker converter. You can also use Parker ink cartridges. A copy of MacArthur's autograph is on the side of the cap. Click the headline for close-ups.

Perhaps one of the most iconic American painters, Norman Rockwell captured the innocence of mid-20th century American life. This limited edition Parker Duofold Norman Rockwell pays tribute to the great artist. This pen is NEW OLD STOCK complete with its many boxes. You gotta love the overly elaborate packaging. Our pen comes in a mini brief case. The folders or sleeves of the case hold the papers that come with the pen, including a certificate of authenticity that comes in what looks like a case for a high school diploma. The fountain pen is housed inside of a wooden box that fits in the brief case. It comes armed with its converter, and spare ink cartridges are under the wooden box. The brief case is stored in a fancy felt bag. That entire set is housed in a plastic bag, and all of that is stored in a fancy cardboard shipping box. Additional shipping charges that the website cannot generate will apply to both foreign and domestic shipping. Click the headline for close-ups.

Sterling silver cisele designs have been a staple of Parker pens for more than 50 years. Evergreen, it looks stunning on our Parker Sonnet rollerball pen. An absolute classic, this rollerball comes without all the hassle of a fountain pen, while still writing smoothly with water-based fountain pen ink! We include a new brand new refill with this pre-owned pen. The pen looks nearly perfect, except for some scratches on the very bottom of the tail's silver. 13.2cm capped.

Parker's so-called 5th Generation pen got us really excited when they first started advertising them about 10 years ago. A new filling system seemed to be in the offing. We were pretty excited. Then it turned out to be a rubber-tipped marker refill posing as a fountain pen. Ooooo-kay. Awkward. Not really a new generation of filling systems by our standards. BUT, it remained a surprisingly nice writing pen. Our Parker Urban Ingenuity is in great condition with some light wear from use. We include a brand new refill for your writing pleasure. 13.8cm capped.

Did you know that Parker Sonnets come in a miniature version? We didn't until this Parker Sonnet Mono Refresh arrived on our doorstep. It is an adorable little pen whose design pattern is called "chisled carbon." Click the headline for a close-up. Twist the nose cone to advance or retract the ballpoint. These actually don't take Parker-style refills. It takes a stick refill! This one comes with a working black refill, and the pen appears to be in excellent condition with minimal wear. 10cm.

Feminine lines add an uncommon grace and style to the Parker Urban rollerball pen. The curves fall gently into your hand as you write. The matte blue and silvery colors offer a nice appearance. This pen is fairly new with only a little wear from use. It takes Parker rollerball refills, unsurprisingly. 13.9cm capped.

It is difficult to think of Parker Jotter pens as vintage. Oh, sure. They came out in the mid-1950s, but they are still in production today. These 4 pens are a little bit vintage and a little bit modern. The olive colored Jotter has brass threads and a button that has a domed top. The off-white Jotter has brass threads and a stamped inset on the button. The blue and burgundy Jotters have plastic threads and stamped inset button tops. All the stamps are identical with the arrow through a hoop Parker logo. All of the pens seem to work well with new blue or black refills. All of the pens show some wear, with the blue pen showing the most wear. Only the off-white pen's clicker is a little finicky.

Brushed stainless steel Parker pens have been designated "Flighter" models since the 1950s. This modern Parker Sonnet Flighter was made much more recently than that. Yet, this preowned pen maintains classic Parker styling and is a good dependable daily writer. Minimal wear, if any. It has a golden alloy nib that you will find to write a very smooth medium line. This pen uses only Parker converters or cartridges and comes with neither. Click the headline for close-ups. 13.2cm capped.
