Thanked: 0I've never gotten to actually use them but my grandmother has handed down to me her parker pens from when she was in high school. I love these pens and Am still looking for a place that I can faithfully send them to to be refurbished for use again.

I just got a call that my '40 Sheaffer is done
there are a few great people out there that specialize in different pens, the guy that did mine is well knowen for his work on old Sheaffers. I know one guy is huge on Parkers, he's over at FPN, but I don't remember his name off the top of my head. Depending on the work needed many times it's cheaper to get a new pen. However a gift has no $$ value attached to it and I'd have them restored in a heartbeat. My Sheaffer was a gift from my uncle durring a visit reciently so I was not worried about the cost. Some repairs are not cheap most common ones are not expensive though, mine required re-welding the nib so it ran a bit more than the pen was really worth but not much more and I was totally fine with the charges. Ron Zorn has great reputation and I'm sure my pen will work like new
