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 5-1/4"
Filling System Takes Parker-style ballpoint refills. A working red 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 rolled gold filled pen in parallel lines pattern. Pearlized cap jewel.
Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a nice-sized, classic pen. The overall appearance of the pen is dulled by a lot of small microscratches. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip and extending mechanism. The clip looks good with just some brassing at the very top. The cap jewel is excellent. The imprints are clear.
