It is Sunday, and time for another Pen Resurrection! Today's vintage pen is a 1937 Parker Sheaffer Balance. I bought this pen at an antique dealer just a couple of weeks ago. I talk about the pen's history, parts, and features, provide some size comparisons and measurements, and then do a writing sample. Plus I show the entire restoration process from start to finish.
