Fountain pen is a Vacumatic filler with iridescent green jewels set in captop and blind endpiece, cap rims imprinted "14K GOLD / MADE IN USA", date code beneath clutch ring indicates 1946 manufacture. Pen measures 134mm, pencil measures 131mm. Hooded nib, appears fine. In the original flip-top Parker box. Both instruments are in excellent condition, essentially flawless except the pen's clip lacks the blue diamond.
