In a similar vein, I received today a lot containing a dip pen and 16 nibs, three of which were Renew-Points: 1551 "Student", a 2668 "General Writing", and a 9128 "Extra Fine Flexible" (!) plus several other interesting dip nibs and a fine fat gold Sheaffer Lifetime FP nib.
Parker #18 Lucky Curve in smooth orange hard rubber, no flaws except the lack of a cap and "TF" scratched into the bottom over the "18." The nib is good, though tips are slightly misaligned; looks like an EF with fair flex to it.
I haven't tried to open the pen, and I may not.
$3.99 and free shipping, and I hadn't even noticed this pen sitting back there, all quiet-like; I was just after the dip pens and nibs! <G>
