At the auction of Parker 168304 the "Czar's Parker" David and I were standing together and he told me that he would be restocking it.
That never happened.... As recently as this summer David has told me he hasn't done it and doesn't even know if it has been restocked to date. Certainly if anyone could repair the original, David could... provided enough pieces of the original remained.
Incidentally Robert, where did you see a picture of the original?
