Product Description
Type ballpoint pen ... one of our favorite Parker ballpoints, very well balanced and easy to write with for long periods of time.
Product Name Parker 61
Manufacturer and Year Parker, USA -- 1959-62
Length 5"
Filling System Takes Parker-style ballpoint refills. A working black refill is installed. Please note that you should probably stick with Parker-made refills; we tried a Monteverde/Parker refill, and the tip got hung up.
Color 1/10th 12k gold filled pen in parallel lines pattern.
Condition Excellent condition. It has heavy handwear/microscratching but no brassing. No dings or dents. The imprints are hard to read due to the handwear but are present and readable. There's some scratching on the barrel from cap lip contact and early plating wear on the clip.
