Hmmmm.... good point about the wardens. But the clip is brass w/ a good look of rolled gold, though not marked., as is the lever. The lever hinge is similar to a Mabie Todd in that it uses an internal...
Well, it's a lever filler; not a button filler. The threads at the back have been suggested to be a leftover from a previous incarnation as a button filler; that would jive with your theory. However; ...
There's an elegant curve to it. Wonder what the wood is. And I find it interesting the manner in which the gold rind was tooled as a flat piece and wrapped and nailed. Clearly made by a craftsman, but...
Has all the makings of a lucky curve, button filler (early duomatic). The restoration is simple and cheap. I'd check with vacumania.com or Ron Zorn @ main street pens. They would give you a reasonable...
OOPS... Thriftime not in that photo... that's a 1934 Challenger in grey marble!!
That's my WOW of the day! And the blue kettle etc. just go so perfectly.
Absolutely lovely. A piece to be very proud of.
Vacumatic is a widely collected pen. parkercollector.com will give you most of the information you need. The colour, the date of manufacture (there is a date code on most parker pens) the size and con...

Very Cool!!
Love your collection!! I just found a Phinney Walker a short time ago. Pull cord 30hr on a dest set... But I have too much invested in pens to chase clocks!! Best Regards, Mark
If you still have it, send your photos to penhome.co.uk They will give you a fair appraisal. It's an extremely valuable pen if genuine. Best Regards, Mark
If you're still looking for info. Check out Richard Binder @ RichardsPens.com or Tony @ parkercollector.com. You'll find all the info you need. Those are valuable pens when restored. Best Regards, Mark
It is a lovely looking pen, but without some provenance, it's impossible to guess at value. The only suggestion I have is to put it on ebay. Pen Collectors of America has a site for listing items but ...
It's clearly a portable dip pen. It's unlikely to be a thermometer case, as they usually were either exclusively for thermometers or had a separate compartment for the glass thermometer, to prevent th...
