Vintage Parker 88 Rialto Fountain Pen - Matte Black w Gold Trim - Tested Works For Sale

This is an exquisite, vintage Parker 88 Rialto Fountain Pen in the classic Matte Black finish with elegant Gold Plated Trim. This beautiful pen was manufactured in the United Kingdom as verified by the “made in UK” branding on the pen (see pics). The pen is used but in excellent condition. It has been tested to confirm that it still writes very well. The pen has a gold plated medium nib and an empty ink cartridge (see pics). Filling the pen with ink should be no problem as one can either purchase new ink filled cartridges (i.e. from Staples) or use a blunt tip syringe to inject ink (from a bottle of ink) into the existing empty cartridge. The pen is 5 1/8 inches long (see pics). It is truly a fine writing instrument designed to provide both aesthetic beauty and excellent functionality.
