Product Description
Type Fountain pen
Product Name Parker 51 (the filling system says "Special" but the rest of the pen conforms to what you'd expect from a regular model.)
Manufacturer and Year Parker USA - from after 1952, when they stopped marking their pens with a date code.
Length full size pen 5-1/2"
Filling System Aerometric squeeze filling system
Color Navy Grey with a "Lustraloy" stainless steel cap, arrow-clip. Pearlescent cap jewel.
Nib FINE 14k gold nib is very smooth, with lots of tipping material.
Condition Excellent condition. The only flaws in this pen are some microscratching and slight wear on the cap and barrel, and that the cap jewel looks like it has yellowed a little, probably due to sun damage. Still, the pen has polished up very nicely, with only the tiniest scratches on the section. Working splendidly, with a very smooth nib.
