9760: Parker London Duofold: one of the scarcest and most striking of modern Duofolds, this Centennial-sized limited edition pen was made in a very small run of only 100 examples, of which 13 were kept by Parker for internal use. The remaining 87 were released at the London Pen Show directly to the public; only a handful have been resold since.

6520: Waterman Remex Self-Filler No. 101: one of Waterman's earliest self-fillers, and so rare that most advanced collectors have never seen a complete example; construction is all-aluminum, with a hard rubber press-fit section assembly, sleeve rotates rather than slides to expose filler bar; this example is new old stock, and the hardened sac is preserved with the pressure bar laced in place exactly according to the William Ferris patent 799,897 of 1905 (Ferris' patent 950,817 of 1910 is the one covering the usual Waterman sleeve-filler design); 14 cm long, superficial shop wear, "PAT.
