Product Name Parker "51" Vacumatic.

Filling System Piston/plunger (Vacumatic) system. We've restored it with a new diaphragm and it's working very well. We will include instructions on how to use this system.
Color Cedar Blue body with a brushed steel (Lustraloy) cap, a gold clip and a pearlescent cap jewel. The clip lacks the blue diamond, which makes us think it might have originated on a Vac Junior.

Condition Excellent + condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a shiny, classic fountain pen in a pleasing color combination. The section has typical long, thin scratch marks caused by capping. The barrel has light scratching. The cap has light scratching but no shiny marks. The cap band has light wear and scratching. The clip and clip band are excellent. The Parker imprint on the clip is clear.
