Parker "VS" Hystory: |
The Parker "VS" — "Vacumatic Successor" or "Victory Successor" was introduced in late 1946. A last try during the hooded nib-era to introduce a pen with an open nib while the somewhat dated Vacumatic was being phased out. The Parker "VS" is an excellent writer but it was sadly overlooked by the customers. The Parker "VS" was however more popular in Europe where it sold much better than in the US. |
