As I mentioned in my earlier reply, the Wearevers often mimicked the pens of other brands, including Parker. I had to take a couple of pics this morning of stuff from the recent SF Pen Show and took the following photo. It is a recent restoration I did of a Parker Striped Duofold, next to a Wearever Meteor. Those of you who collect Parkers might note some interesting differences on this particular item! Anyway, it goes to show that the current spate of Chinese copies (because they *aren't* tributes) of production pens of Europe and the US are certainly far from the first to follow that path.
Cheers,
Jon
