Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:994007 | Brand: Parker |
Here is a vintage (1946) Parker 51 fountain pen in Midnight Black.
This pen has been used, but is in excellent condition to near mint condition. Pen does not appear to have been used very much at all in it previous life.
The Vacumatic filling system has been completely restored and is in working order. The Vacumatic filling unit has been removed from the barrel, allowing me to remove the old diaphragm along with any remnants that may have stuck onto the inside of the barrel. Af...ter a thorough cleaning, a new diaphragm of the correct size was cut to the properly length and installed. Filling unit was reinstalled and the pen was tested to make sure that it is fully functional and working. Pen is now in working order.
And now for the fun part! This Parker 51 is fitted with an absolutely fantastic 14k gold STUB nib. Nib is complete with full Parker imprints, except for the date code. This nib was NOS and never used. The times are straight and iridium tipping is perfect. Stub nib 51s are exceedingly uncommon.
Factory Parker imprint is present near the clutch ring. Imprint shows very little wear and is easily read.
Pen is free from any names, initials, monograms or personalizations of any kind.
There are no chips, cracks, breaks, repairs, deep scratches or gouges to the plastic parts on this pen. This is a nice clean example that has been completely gone through and ready for years of enjoyment for the new owner.
If you need ANY additional information or pictures, do not hesitate to contact me.
