I have a pretty nice "user" Black Patrician that I bought years ago. unfortunately, the pen is a "marriage" as it has a nice plastic cap and good section and a wonderful flex medium nib, however it came to me with what I believe is a black rubber barrel, which is now discolored to a greyish black color and almost brown near the end. the filler lever is in really nice condition with no brassing and the gold imprint on the top is good. I have been searching (not too much lately!!) for a replacement plastic barrel, and someone who can do the replacement. I would really like to get this one restored if possible. It's a great using pen, but I don't care for the color difference. I know this is a long shot as Patrician parts are pretty scarce, but I thought I would ask.
Thanks in advance
Arthur
Here are a couple of photos that show the difference in color between the barrel and the cap
