The Parker New Slimfold was introduced in 1971 and discontinued in 1975, this 'De Luxe' version became available in 1973.
Bearing little resemblance to the earlier Slimfold, this is a cartridge/converter filler. A new ink cartridge is included.
The G.T. (Gold Trim) version came as a standard G.T and an upgraded version, this pen, with a Gold filled end stud on the barrel. Finished in classic black, the pen also features a 14Ct.Gold nib, in this case with a broad point. It writes with a beautifully smooth broad line, ideally suited to someone who writes with a flourish.
The short production run, poor sales, and the fact that this is the top of the range and therefore most expensive version combine to make this pen quite uncommon. It comes along very infrequently.
