Demonstrator (de: Demonstrator) (it: Demonstrator) Many pens were produced with transparent barrels to be used as salesman's models to demonstrate internal working mechanisms. More recently, the clear pens have been produced for style rather than as sales demos, although these are still referred to as demos. Best known is the Pelikan 800 green demonstrator, now a highly collectible limited edition.
Depression pens (de: Depression pens) (it: Depression Pens) A name often used to refer to the Parker Thrift-Time series of the early '30s. These were economy priced button-fillers that were produced in a wide range of interesting colors. They are now highly collectible.
Derby (de: Derby) (it: Derby) The dome of the Eversharp Skyline. Most models have a clip that wraps up over this derby, but a few early models do not. Derbys are usually in the same color plastic as the pen barrel, but some are gold-filled or 14k.
Desk sets (de: Tischset) (it: Penna da tavola) Desk pens are usually referred to as a desk set, with the base being the marble or other heavy material onto which a holder is fitted, and the pen itself called a desk pen. Desk pens have the distinctive taper and no cap. Some desk pens were convertible to pocket pens by removing the taper, and adding a blind cap and a cap. Desk sets range from simple single pen models to double pen sets with elegant statues and lamps or clocks. Desk sets tend to be undervalued in the vintage market and are fertile ground for future collectors.
Diaphragm (de: Diaphragma) While the Parker Vacumatic does not use an ink sac, it does use a rubber piece which fits tightly inside the barrel, and when operated by the plunger, expels air to create the vacuum. These diaphragms are now produced so Vacumatics can be restored.

See Fountain Pen History from the PenLovers Homepage.
Doctor's pen (de: Doktorfüller) (it: penna del dottore) Early doctor's pens had a thermometer in the barrel along with the pen works. By the '20s, a number of companies produced white sets with a pen, a pencil, and a matching thermometer case.
Doric (de: Doric) (it: Doric) Made by Wahl-Eversharp in the '30s, the Doric was named for the 12-sided columns of Greek architecture. The pen has 12 faceted sides. From '31 to '34, the Doric had the distinctive Eversharp rollerball clip,. From '35 to '41, Dorics had a straight clip. A variety of colors, sizes and cap band styles were made.

In late '26, Parker began making plastic pens and Duofolds became available in Jade, Lapis, Black and pearl and Mandarin yellow in addition to red and black. They came in Junior and Senior sizes, The '26-'27 models had a single wide cap band, the '28-'29 models had two narrow bands. These are known as "flat-tops" because in 1930, Parker introduced a slightly smaller model with the streamlined look of the period, and added several new colors. The Duofold was replaced by the Vacumatic, but ads show that Duofolds of these styles continued to be available from Parker into the '40s. The Duofold name was re-introduced by Parker in the '40s with a lower priced pen available as either vacumatic-filling, or as a button filler. The name has again been resurrected with the contemporary Duofold line."
