Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Parker 180
Manufacturer and Year Parker, France. No date codes, so we think these are from 1979 before they started putting date codes on the pens.
Length 5-7/16"
Filling System Fountain pen
Color "Jasper Red" is a brick red color with black areas, like the semiprecious stone.
Nib 14k X/M (extra-fine on one side, medium on the other)
Condition There's some missing lacquer in a few different areas on the pen -- along the top and bottom edges of the barrel where the lacquer meets the trim, and around the top tassie. Most of it has been photographed below. There's plating wear on the metal beneath the nib and on the gold trim. It is particularly noticeable around the Parker on the cap band.
