I came across this 1932 Parco and expected that with all its cap rings and no apparent damage that it would join the small herd (not so small but not as large as David Isaacson's) of Parker sub-brands. The first photo shows it capped. [attachment=204:CIMG0008.JPG]
The second photo The Surprise: a blind cap.[attachment=205:CIMG0003.JPG]
And the third, another surprise: An undrilled end apparently intended for a vac-fil. [attachment=206:CIMG0007.JPG]
So what we have is a clip with the flat plate and two stepped chevrons marking a first year lever-filled Parco and the two rings each at cap top and lip. Tapered cap top end. Rounded bottom end of a later Writefine but with the bottom blindcap like the 1934 Challenger. And the stub for the blind cap not perforated. All this suggests to me an end of the year parts round-up. Anybody else seen one like this or have any other explanations? Thanks, Jack
