PArker Ellipse: Comments from users would be appreciated by JCC
I did not find much on this pen in the archives. If those of you who have one would comment, I'd appreciate it. Is thispen reliable? Are the nibs generally smooth, or broad or what... Any idea why it is being taken off the market? Problems? thank you, JCC

Brassing? by Jack Harrell
I recently picked up an old Parker Vacumatic and I've found I really like the style of these old pens. The clip, however, looks fairly tarnished which I guess is what you call "brassing." Is there a good way to clean the clip or is this a permanent change of color?
