You can never go wrong with a Silvers pad on a vintage Parker. The 1” may be a tough one but a 1/4” black spacer under it may be a problem solved.

Good Morning,

Although, I like Dean's recommendation about using a black spacer under a currently available Silvers Pad, I am pretty sure I have a NOS 1" pad here somewhere. It is one that G&H sold a few dozen years ago and it is not the nice original orange color that we all like, but the pale red that is found on many currently available Silver's pads. Let me know if I should go rooting around the cellar. Actually, G&H (or CSMC) may still offer the 1" Silvers, not sure? Remember, what I said up above, as 1" pads don't look appropriate to this old fart on a fine old doublegun.
