Vintage Fountain Pens Inc

Vintage Fountain Pens Inc. (VFPI) was established under its former name, Vintage Fountain Pens, in 1976.

Our primary aim is to provide vintage fountain pens and related writing accessories such as ink bottles, advertisements and desk items. Fountain pens, unless stated otherwise, are restored and ready for use today. This is not necessarily a site for those looking for new pens or mint vintage pens, although these may be available from time to time. Vintage fountain pens are by their very nature second, third or even fourth hand, condition will vary and this is reflected in the price.

This rare vintage pen was made by Parker in 1929. Marketed as the “True Blue” it was a bid by Parker to enter the more medium price market. Unfortunately at the time this was not successful, hence this particular model was only made for short period. The barrel imprint reads: “Geo S. Parker” “Fountain Pen” “Made in Canada” “Patented”. The medium nib states “Parker Fountain Pen 14k Canada 45”. There is slight colour variation between cap and barrel and moderate ambering which is common in this particular model. The cap sports the original Parker ball ended clip to which there is some brassing and there are minor marks on the cap top edges, however it is in good condition overall. It is a slim button filling pen measuring 12.6cm with cap on and 15.2cm with cap on end of barrel. This vintage pen, now fully restored, will once again provide many more years of writing service and also make a fine addition to a vintage pen collection. All fountain pens are professionally serviced by Vintage Fountain Pens Inc. and bench tested prior to offering for sale. A further inspection is carried out before despatch. A gift box is available free of charge on request and filling instructions will be included in your order.

I am a fountain pen and writing equipment collector and dealer. If you would like to meet other enthusiastic collectors of pens and writing equipment why not join the Writing Equipment Society?

Here is a little information about how this site works:

The Make me an Offer section provides the opportunity to purchase unrestored vintage pens, collectors items or more modern items not found elsewhere on the site. These are available on a best price basis, provided they meet the reserve.

The Vintage Pens section initially shows all the pens currently in stock, displayed in a random order, over several pages. Clicking on the link below the pen illustration will reveal other pens available from the same manufacturer. An alternative method of finding a particular pen is to use the Search Catalogue section.

The Accessories section shows all the accessories currently in stock or, as with the Pens list, you can search for particular items such as ink bottles, advertisements etc. by using Search Catalogue.

When you have found something you wish to buy, then click on the 'add to basket' icon . You may continue shopping and add more items to your basket. When you have completed shopping then click on the 'Check out' button in the right margin to pay for your purchases. (NB: this button only appears when you have items in your basket. We use 'cookies' to record the contents of your basket. If your browser has cookies turned off then you will not be able to add items to your basket.)

The Restoration section provides information on fountain pen restoration. VFPI has been restoring pens since 1976.

I hope you enjoy your shopping experience. Feedback is always welcome.
