Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Parker 51 Aerometric.
Manufacturer and Year Parker, England -- No date code could be read from the pen, but we judge it to be from 1958-9. (In 1960 they moved the barrel breather hole to the side, and this pen has it in a location at the end of the barrel. In 1957 they removed the "Superchrome" reference from the filling unit, and this lacks the reference.)
Length 5-1/2"
Filling System Aerometric squeeze filling system. It's been tested and is working well.
Color The color is black. The stainless steel cap has the Lustraloy brush finish and a pearlescent cap jewel.
Nib 14k medium nib. It's smooth with intact tipping material.
Condition This pen is in excellent condition. The cap has quite a few shallow shiny marks. The barrel looks excellent with very little wear. The imprint is worn but still relatively easily read. It would be great for daily use. The pen's filling system works well. Guaranteed for one year from purchase.
